I had one called Useless, and a little palomino called Applepie. Oh, and I forgot the best one, a SJ'er I had at Pony Club called Heat. (Here's Abbi on Heat!

A friend had a mare called Tilly, nothing special about that until you realised she was a Trotter!

My auntie's sister once had a bay gelding called Big Willie!

It was funny when people always referred to it as her big willy!!!

Mine's called Maiden... don't particularly like it, but nothing else suits!
I was at West Wilts HT last year when we heard over the tannoy, "and now on the XC, Tottering By Gently" - would have loved to have seen just how fast this horse was going!
I know a little palomino mare called Clarity, gorgeous pony and I think that is the most gorgeous name for her. I could never have thought of something like that!

Petal - big fat bay cob. Didn't suit her AT ALL !!

My friend had a pony called Pig. God knows who named it that, but it was lovely by all accounts!

I love ones that explain how they were bought:

Further Advance
Cash
Barassic (sp?)

and there's always one in the Team SJ called Norfolk 'n' Hope!!

A woman up my old yard had two ponies called Willie and Fantasia, she used to go across the field calling Willie and Fanny, all us young un's at the time used to find it highly amusing (we were only 7 or 8).

My sister's pony is called spaz, well he;s actually called sparrow but no-one calls him that. His previous owners called him spaz or spazzy and despite us thinking it was awful at the time it stuck.
