Show names for 14.3hh eventer pony

[welshpony216]

She is a gray mare, likes to go and is quite strong. She has a bold jumping style with lots of scope, but is a bit spooky and insecure. She has a huge canter that is more like a gallop. An ex-hunter/equitation rider, I am don't really know what good names for eventers. If you guys know any, please write them in. She is kind of like a mini OTTB, and thinks she is a princess. I don't think the "cute" pony names would suit her well. I do not have too many pics of her, as my phone doesn't have a camra, so the only pics of her were taken on a laptop. The best picture only shows her nose.

You have to keep the passport name for Eventing

 

[welshpony216]

She doesn't have a passport, and is not registered. We know nothing of her past, and got her for free. We have none of her papers and things.

Are you based in the UK? Your horse needs to have a passport by law, and be microchipped.

In USA

Ok, I am not familiar with the rules in the US. There are a few other American posters on here, but it is a largely UK based forum. Not that that is a problem, you are very welcome to be here, but you may find a lot of the responses very UK aligned.

I looked it up, and it said that horses in the US do not need microchips for competing at un recognized shows in the US. They do not need passports unless they are crossing state lines.

Goodness Gracie Me?

(Sorry, no idea what's appropriate for the US, but that just stuck in my head!)

 

[welshpony216]

My friend suggested Nuts & Bolts. Because she thinks Gracie is crazy (nuts) and spooks a lot (bolts).. . So she is Nuts & Bolts! What do you guys think? If anyone wants to use it, go ahead, but I don't recommend naming your horse that if there may be a time when the horse may need to be sold, the potential buyers might get the joke.

Be cautious when naming a horse after a characteristic. Equine humour demands they live up to it.?

I was bought a pony called Fury when I was a child - he lived up to his name!!!
