I was taking entries at my riding club show. Someone entered a horse called Geoff....and got very annoyed when I spelt it Jeff. WTF? As if that's the thing to care about when your horse is called Geoff!

My friend used to have a big ISH cross callled BigIsh -

We went to look at a horse that we were considering buying, I asked the owner it's name, she said Up To You, I said great we can call her what we like, No she said it's Up To You, ok I said and turned to my daughter and said what do you think we should call it...... Daughter rolls eyes and said MUM it's name is Up To You !!!!!!!

very embarrased mum walked away whilst owner and my daughter collapsed laughing.

Our current grey mare was originally named Sunshine - weird name for a grey I think

 

[Ibblebibble]

my mares stable name on her passport is Michelle some human names suit horses but not michelle thankfully she's always been called shellee

My friend has one called Nobby , he is , lol another friend had a TBx shire called Mouse

 

[TicTac]

I had a pony called Boots and named so because his legs were permanently muddy in the winter making him look like he was wearing some.

I've also had a horse called Ataboy, I never liked that name so I gave him the stable name of Alby.

I've also had a pony called pod!

 

[mga4ever]

[PuzzlePatch]

[gocharliego]

i know a horse called Cash!

 

[I*HM]

Some of these names seem fairly average to me
Alvin has been called 'Ivan' at a show, surely they knew they'd made a mistake?

I knew two ponies called Pinky and the Brain, Pinky was previously Fugly Pony (gangly blued cream) and Brain became Squishy Pony because Brain is no name for a pony!

I know three "Grey Mare"s, one who's real name is Sushi.
My last pony was called Pudding by her previous owner, though she became Banshee.

 

[_Rach_]

I have a Twizzle, which i think is a bit of and odd name, but we call her Twizzy or Wiz Bang.

[sykokat]

My horse is called Tamar and I knew one called Dishcloth lol

 

[Fun Foals]

I worked at a stud and we had a mare come in called Fluffy, Big strong tb, i thought it was a stable name but she was registered Fluffy.
We also had a little mare called Snuff.

Have had a few strange ones. Plus we nickname the foals and they can get strange.

 

[Ibblebibble]

[duckling]

Again, all from riding schools - Jill, Cilla, Gad, TV, Doris, Basher, Malcolm, Darius, and my favourite, Trauma

My friend has a 'Frank'.

At the RS I worked at they were all pretty standard I think...we had a Rambo, Othello, Dingo, Outlaw, Pip, Hercules, Lightning (who had a foal named Thunder), Magic, Tia, Jester, Wings, Sherry, Zara, Bonnie, Darcy, Barney, Jazz, Quintz...all bar a couple no longer with us and replaced by more unusual names IMO with the likes of Super Ted and Candy and Bilbo - not the best name for children to pronounce wrongly!! Lol

I've had a lot of literary based names which I think are lovely.

Ahhh, Tanglewood

I rode there a bit whilst at uni, did friendly comps in my first year. Ding was my favourite, I won once purely because he bucked the other three competitors off Great horse! Herc was cool too. Did have to do dressage on Zara once, that was a bit embarrassing!

 

[Vixen Van Debz]

Stout the Shetland. Not only was he so dark bay he was nearly back and round in the middle, but he had a little mealy-ish muzzle like the head of a pint! lol.

He grows a grey tash in the winter which curls up either side his top lip
