My mare is called dyllis hehe when we bought her, she was a bit dithery so she got the nickname dithering dyllis, and it just stuck. To be fair though, it does suit her haha

I knew a polo pony called Seaweed :) And a dressage horse called Sweaty (Was Suerte but noone could pronounce it so it became Sweaty).

I don't personally know the horse but have seen a mare for sale called Lauren. That's probably the weirdest horse name I have seen.

I see someone mentioned the name Brandy - one of mine is called brandy, HOW RUDE!!!! :mad::eek:

I am Joe King of course - each to their own :D

new foal was called ruby as she was born red and white but is now blue and white so changed to sapphire
used to ride a p2p called snowy, he was dark bay
his stablemate was called hitchmough
friend called her foal foaly until she could think of a name, she never did so foaly he remained.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but small world - that Boyzie is mine! :) brought him home as a 6month old, called him boy and boy-ee to start with which somehow morphed into Boyzie and stuck :) passport name is Wellington though... But he's turned out with a Spider, which is unusual

Mine is called Eggs - his passport name ends in Enigma but I couldn't face calling 'Eniiiiiggggmmmaaaaa' across the field and dislike 'Iggy' so Eggs it is. Like it though, he can be Good Egg, Bad Egg or Rotten Egg depending on his behaviour :)

From riding schools years ago - Nameless, Asterix, Judith, Dominique and Mouse spring to mind as odd ones.
