Most ridiculous horse names you've come across....??

Cuddlekins. It probably did have an official stable name, but if it did owner never told anyone, & she'd bred it. Wasn't a small cuddly pony either, it was a stonking great gelding with zero manners & used to its own way. And it wasn't called Cuddlekins sarcastically either!
 
We had a Qwertyuiop - came from a big Irish stud, who was clearly challenged when it came to naming that years yealing - when I looked up the breeder - they had also called one of the same vintage 'Whatwillicallthisone'
Wish. though that I had bought Azertioup - who went on to win some cracking races!

Azertyuiop just had the misfortune of being a 2miler at the same time as the legendary Moscow Flyer! He was a cracking horse!

There is one up here that is called - Ahdeaken - I don't know lol!
 
i know a few
donkey for a thoroughbred
silly billy was a shetland x newforest pony
LB for little b------, he was a 15,2 warmblood
broncho was a little pony lived to his late 40s
 
My TB ex racer was called 'another daffodil' after the breeders dead friend's dead wife(!) as he used to call said wife 'dafodil' and her stable name was Ronnie (dead friend). It freaked me out somewhat, so I spent a few days and renamed her Fen. Sold her as Fen. All good until she went on huntin livery to the yard that had P2P'd her... You guessed it, back to Ronnie- she is still Ronnie 6 years on! Poor mare- I did try!

I also tried with a small blue fun Shetland that I took on from a rescue- he was called Moose. I shouted every name under the sun at him, he was just a Moose- so Moose he stayed.i

Ive also had a welshy called Polly and a lovely looking TB x Connie mare called Grot. Referred to as The Grot in reverent voice now as she is over the rainbow bridge, but she was officially Nutmeg (we couldn't call her nutter so that was next best thing...) but she developed The Grot due to copious face pulling and snapping teeth but very few actual nips or bites.

I currently have a Welshie called Ruridh (sp??) and a hunter youngster currently called GuPo- short for The Gunner Pony as I'm not quite ready to admit that he's a fraction off 16hh. :D
 
Just a few that spring to mind:

Ovens
John Thomas (!)
Shy Ted (say it out loud)
Badly (as in "now in the arena we have Mr X riding "Badly")
Mini Hatchet
Goodnight
Betsy Bluebell
Wilf
Hudson
Snackers
Blitzkrieg (one-eyed Grade A showjumper)

Loved 'em all...

Again, brillant!


I think the best ones I came across were when I learned to ride abroad - Diankas (gelding), Hermann and Dompedoo!
 
Lightning. Very stuffy and nappy Welsh Cob. There was one born at the same time called thunder.
Some lovely very well spoken bred once called Fanny. Lady used to say to people when the mare was a youngster have you seen the size of my Fanny?
My own mare who is out on loan is called Popsters Pink n Black. Stable name is Notja as she is not Julie Anne after a Welsh Cob that I really like.
Knew of one with stable name Nine. Registered name After Eight.
 
During my recent horse search, I found a mare call Beans. It wasn't to be, which might have been for the best as she'd have been sharing a field with pony called Sausage!

I now have Danny, who raced under the name Any Offer. :confused:
 
I always smile at a friends old horse who is called 'Ginger' even though he's a grey - pure white now in old age :D in their defence he was a chestnut foal.
I also know of a 'foggy' - so named because he's thick & white.
 
My horse is named Barry Scott after the man in the cilit bang ads! That's what happens when you enlist a bunch of drunk friends in the pub to name your new horse! Of course he is known as bazza for short- proper chavvy name for a v elegant tb gelding!
 
Some weird and wonderful names :D

Used to have a mare called Tracey, YO said she was not standing at gate and calling out her name :rolleyes:

Friend has a large WB/Clydie called Tony, really does not suit him.
 
When I worked on the polo yard we had 2 four year olds. One was called easy and the other not-so! They were named after they were being broken in- 1 was easy to break and the other not-so!!! Brilliant :-) x
 
I used to have the most nerdy geek friend you'd ever imagine and he named his horse Noel - nothing to do with Christmas either - just plain Noel! Apologies to anyone called Noel - but I bet you're not a horse!

Mrs Firstclass had some early lessons on a horse called Pugley - which was a diminuative form for "Pretty Damn Ugly" awarded to him by all the American students on the yard.

My daughter's second pony was actually named after a Rolls Royce but was always referred to as "Bag" - as in Ratbag because she had such a hard time with him to start; however; by the time she could ride him well the Lord of the Rings thing had taken off so everyone else said Baggins.

My mare was name after a book of children's nursery rhymes and she once lived next door to quite an illustrious chap rejoicing in the name of Maestoso Brazavitzza - who those in the know will realise was a full Lipazzaner but Stosie on the yard.
 
knew a princess, she couldnt have been further from a princess she was an absolute demon! also knew a big 16.3 chestnut who was called verdi but his owner changed his name to toffee.. she also owned a gorgeous blacl 17.1 called passion.. they all sound a bit daft to me! dont know why she changed verdi to toffee..
 
Pantalon or Pants for short :confused:

17.2hh chesnut warmblood Gelding

and my first ever horse was a shetland caller Hitler :D

Ive known a Geoff, Georgia,

On the racing yard at the minute there is Boris, Big George and Little George, big Eric and Little Eric, Radge :confused: and Pinky
 
I've known a Neville amd Patricia... :rolleyes:

Though the worst had to be one called Updalilhorse.... Muriel for short!! :eek: New owner did change the name though, was a lovely girl but why would you call your horse such a name!!
 
neville
sidney
boris
stanley
donald
missmoneypenny
lalka
chalky
harvey

mine is called 'freebie' or beeblet for short

but the worst of all time for me was emma-what were they thinking
 
Mines called Walter, he is definately a Walter even shortening it to Wally doesn't suit him.

I've know a horse called sugar lips!
