How many of you have nicknames for your horse?

Elvis has a few;

Elvissimo
Pelvis
Stinker
Stinkerbell
Trouble

These are the most frequently used names. The stinker ones are because Elvis loves lying in his own poo and hence can smell pretty bad.

So what names do your horses have?
 
I can't repeat what my horse was called today, after breaking a fence post, trashing her field and then rolling in the ***** mud!!!
My previous mare was nicknamed Noodles, and the shetland gets called TubbyBoo.
My new mare doesn't seem to have acquired one yet!
 
Missy-Moo
Moobear
Bear
Little one
Chuck
Ponio
Midget
Bab/Baba/Babe

She has a lot :biggrin3: I very rarely call her Missy!
 
Corie has a few different names....depending on what kind of mood I'm in!!

CoCo
Ninja
Ginger face
Ginger Ninja
Bubbs
Muppet brain!

And anything else that happens to pop into my head at the time!

Big Girl, only 15.1 but when I bought he age 4 she was 14.3. Grumpy (says it all about face though does have a loving nature), mud monster. Her daughter was out with a 16.3 broodmare last summer who was nicknamed QE2 because of her size & large turning circle. My horse (only 14.3) got nicknamed 'tug boat' as she used to guide her in, & her shape (short / round, wasn't working last year), now it's stuck. Also called 'pumpkin' because of her colour.

26 yr old called 'the b7tch', let you guess why......
 
As ours have race names, most of them have nicknames (some of which are completely unrelated to their race names!):

Shes Some Deal = Star/Big Ears
Merrington Missile = Missile/Mr Grumps
Rooster Cogburn = Parker/Parker Pants
Young Stephen = Stevie
Wild Bill Hickock = Wild Bill/Billy
Cassius Clay = Cassius
Eternal Flame = Eternal/Moody Mare
Mattys Romance = Matty
Dark Velvet = The Boss
Coalford Tracey = Tracey
Tates Creek = Tate/Sugar
Saunders Beachgirl = Beachgirl/Old Girl
Vain In Spain = Rita

I must admit, as Eternal and me don't really get on that her usual nickname is slightly worse than what I've written!
 
16.3 TB ex racer gelding called Gizmo :o (not my choice but cant bring myself to rename him!)

Mainly Giz

Gizmopolitan (after the cocktail cosmopolitan)
Sid (previous, previous stable name apparently)
Beautiful
Handsome
Oi and Pony :cool:

And my favourite is I call him Summer Sunshine :p And I threaten my sharer by saying im going to enter him into competitions with her and call him Summer Sunshine Flying Gazebo (his race name is Flying Gazebo) so they announce that over the speaker, LOL :D
 
Arnie has quite a few!!

Arnie bear
The bear
Big bear
Dark destroyer
Beasty
Dude
Cretin
And of course any name under the sun when he's being a little you know what!!!
 
Geoff (Praetorian Guard) gets a few...

Geoffrey (normally when he's being naughty/cheeky or I'm being stern)
Mr Stink
Stinker
Smell
Wee Man (he's 17hh)
Beast

I've just realised how derogatory my names for Geoff are. My previous horse, Fitzroy, was Fitz, or Fizzle, or Mr Fizz, and Minstrel was Mister Moo or Moobles, but Geoff just gets called insults in a cooing voice...
 
what a great thread! Billy has a few nick names;

Bills
Bill
Bilzo
Bilbo (as in baggins)
Billy the kid
Billy the B******d (acts to this name the most!) ha ha
Mr Dollars
Master Dollars


Strange how they get so many nick names!
 
Mine's called poppet but I always call her Pops! I've never called her Poppet, even though she is one.

Also cheeky minx when she's naughty, or cuddlebug when she's doing something cute.
 
Wimp - because she's gutless. This is also not a nickname but her stable name and she does deserve it.
Witch - because she is

Stupid Pointer - Brains (ironic)
Whippet - Snippet Whippet / Whippety woo

Cat - Arsehat! (because he poo'd in my chair on Monday!) :-)

At my old yard she used to be called 'The Moose' but I dropped that a few years ago as she doesn't behave remotely moose-like nowadays!
