Please help us find a posh name for Rusty

[siennamum]

He is going to be all legal this week, and needs a posh name urgently. His stable name is Rusty and I can't chane that. He is by Icon, so something with Icon or Idol in it would be good, rider is obsessed with Tolkein so likes any LotR horse names or similar would be cool.

I did think of Ferrugem, which is portugese for Rust, given that he is p/b Lusitano, but am struggling- any suggestions please, I would be really grateful....

Here he is:

 

[Celestica]

• Sahara
• Arya (Nobel)
• Roheryn
• Legolas
• Arya (Nobel)
• Cohava (star)
• Karis (graceful)

These are some of the horse's names in lotr that I too hope some day to name a horse! Gorgeous horse you've got there I quite like Ferrugem too, sounds very LOTR

 

[FairyLights]

He is totally gorgeous.
Elronds' Magic
Thorin Okenshield
Quenta Silmarillion
Tar-Plantar
Wildman of the Woods
Amandil
Gandalf's Staff
Lothlorien

 

[Waffles]

How about Doctor Thaddeus Venture (apparently a fictional character nicknamed Rusty in the television series The Venture Bros) - i've no idea what that's about I just googled "rusty"

http://translate.definitions.net/rusty - also some interesting things here!

Ferro (means iron) is already taken - and really too famous to copy, as is Metall (also a relation of Ferro), but I really like the name you have already thought of - Ferragem; signals his heritage (Lusitano), his stable name (Rusty), and his colouring (metallic).

 

[RuthM]

Ferrugineae?

 

[Archangel]

Faramir? The F from the iron and then the link to LOTR.

He is fabulous.

 

[Paint Me Proud]

Gandalfs horse from LOTR was called Shadowfax, so how about something like -

Shadowfax Icon
Shadowfax Idol

 

[AmyMay]

If Rusty is his stable name, how about Iron Man?

 

[Shantara]

Gwaihir Idol?
Velir Stonehelm? (Typed in 'Rusty' in a TLOTR name generator)

 

[snopuma]

How about simply Iconic? easy!

 

[siennamum]

Some of these are fab, many thanks. Definitely one or two LotR nutters around (not just in our house apparently either)

 

[horsey mad matt]

Rustic Idol ?

 

[Celestica]

guilty as charged! Infact my little jack russell is called Rusty, chances!

 

[Hells Bells]

Rustic Icon

 

[Hells Bells]

Rustic Fladnag (read it backwards )
Iconic Aragon

i love this time of year!

 

[temple_jessica]

Golden idol

 

[CorvusCorax]

Was also going to suggest Iron Man or Iron Oxide

Iron Icon. Iron Islander (from Game of Thrones, still fantasy writing )

 

[meandmyself]

Take a look on http://www.freewebs.com/horse-show-names/

 

[Star_Chaser]

Rohirrim's Icon

Rohan's Icon

Rohirrim being the Horse people in LofR a red arrow was given to them when a request for help was made, rust being red you could include something along those lines...

 

[Venevidivici]

Lord Ferrugem! Applicable to him and sounds suitably majestic for such a handsome looking boy

 

[Magicmillbrook]

He is geooorggggussss

I like Iron Man, we were going to use that if we got another grey, our grey cob mare was 'The Iron Maiden'.

What about

Ferrugem Strider
Rohan Ferrugem
Isengard conquest

In J. R. R. Tolkien's fictional universe of Middle-earth, Isengard ([ˈiːzɛn.ɡɑrd], English /ˈaɪzən.ɡɑrd/), a translation of the Sindarin Angrenost, was a large fortress. Both names mean "Iron fortress" (cf. German Eisen and Old English isærn = iron),[1] though Isengard has a second meaning of "West Guard".

Many thanks for al the nice comments. We ran Ferrugem past his owner today, and he was ok with it. We also had suggestions from the farrier of Golden Glow, and from the owner of Jumping Jack Flash. Hmm, definitely need to push for Ferrugem. Shall decide later as he's being registered tomorrow.

 

[chestnut cob]

SM I have nothing constructive to add, simply that I loff him, he's gorgeous!

 

[Nic]

Russet Icon/Idol

Ferrugem's Quest
Gold Quest

Some people have really thought laterally & intelligently & then the owner comes up with "Jumping Jack Flash"????

Good Luck with persuading them not to use that!!!!
