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

[Tnavas]

Goofy - because he'd look at you with a Duh expression on his face - went on to be a 2*eventer in the UK - as Donaghue

Tom, Dennis and Harry - horses I looked after one hunting season

One place I worked named all the horses after the owners.

 

[Rochelle1138]

PB... Short for pony boy, not one of mine but suited the batty lady and her welshie

 

[Antw23uk]

Just seen a horse advertised and they are calling it Vodka!

 

[Barney&Buzz]

On our yard we have 2 Charlies, 2 Roxies, 2 Holly's, Dolly, Polly. Poppy, Welly, Willie, Tilly and Winnie. It gets mighty confusing!!

 

[ShadowFlame]

Can Rodney count? The horse in the stable next t mine is Rodney which I think is cute although happens to be the name of my boyfriend!!!!!

I call them big Rodney (he's 16hh odd clydsdale x) and Little Rodney (BF) - think he would beat me if he found out!

Another Rodney over here!!

There was also Tiny (the Clydesdale), Padlock, Prucilla ( ), Handsome, Robert, Bernard, Harold, Denver...

Love the strange names

On our yard we have 2 Charlies, 2 Roxies, 2 Holly's, Dolly, Polly. Poppy, Welly, Willie, Tilly and Winnie. It gets mighty confusing!!

I can imagine! My friend & i (who used to hack out together) had Blue & Blue!

I've had a Nigel, an Alex & a Caroline!!!! Why???!!!! I changed all their names, unlucky or not!!

Best name i ever heard for a horse was Happy.

 

[serenityjane]

an evil mare named Sugar.

I think I now own her! Her full name is 'sugarfoot'- shortened to Sugar and yes she is evil, but to be fair she has been barefoot all her life and has the best, toughest and hardest feet I have ever seen!

 

[pizzi]

I used to do a hunt horse called Mr Sponge, Fantastic little horse. A friend had a TB horse called Derek.

 

[puss]

I knew a horse flump short for f------ Lump not mine she was a nice horse though all be it a lump

 

[StarlightMagic]

I worked at a yard with a horse called Paganini (P for short!) Also we had Tinky Winky and Lala! The yard owner bred the last two and let her young daughter name them.

 

[Hacked_Off]

There's a 'showjumper' round here with a horse called bamalam a ding dong! needless to say, she's a bit of a laughing stock.

 

[SecretAgentBilly]

I know a horse called Patricia, really doesn't suit her!

 

[rowan666]

django
caspian

[Irishcobs]

Mouse- so named as he is very quiet.
Quiron
Lollypop
Blue- she's chestnut!

 

[Pigeon]

I love old fashioned person names for horses! If I had a mare, Ethel would be top of the list as a name! And Baldwin for a gelding!

As for funny names, nothing that mad but I do know a Gloria, and a Nancy.

 

[Pigeon]

Oh and not a horse, but a friend's little daughter had a hamster called Hula Hoop, which I thought was a great name!

 

[Pigeon]

I knew a Prawn as well! Forgot about him!

 

[nieghham]

Rapatarian....something to do with a rapper

I did like the pony named Pasture Bedtime but others did not so maybe it qualifies here

 

[eirewhisper]

The girl who bought my first pony off me was selling one with showname Hairs Lairs Lets Start Counting! I thought it was quite original
There was a Beaky, a Tuesday and shetty pair Flight & McPhee at the riding school too.

 

[Amo]

This is from when I was a kid but I knew the most stunning Chestnut pony called Twinkle Toes, yes that was his name !!!

 

[ariellaII]

Emma and Susan. Don't know why I find them so funny I think it's just strange calling a horse one of them

I also backed a pony called princess nina and even better, princess puff puff - which was a gelding! Both were owned by the same person I might add...

Although some of the names on this thread are hilarious!

 

[madiz123]

Lettuce and Tomato, two polo ponies with the same owner!

Spiderpig
Sneezy
Invalid
Mechanic

The Argentines also can be fairly unimaginative with names...

Sopa - Soup
Cachorra - Puppy
Clavito - Brad

 

[MerryVB]

Carrot. Which is a the show name as well. Oh and not a chestnut!

 

[Kayfamily]

Can't quote as on phone but Elsiecat, I have a horse called Sally-Anne who is also known as Sal.

 

[Mince Pie]

Although not daft names by themselves, we have 4 horses at yard called - Lolly, Lily, Tillie and Millie, bit of a tongue twister

At our yard at one point we had Sandy, Mandy, Tilly and Millie!
