OK, my mare had her foal on sunday morning, a gorgeous little colt, but I'm finding it so hard to think of a name!! I didn't even think of any while she was pregnant as I didn't want to jinx anything and now he's here and is sooo cute and friendly, he comes over to look for pets and cuddles, I can't think of anything suitable to call him. I've trawled through pages of horse names on the internet and have had numerous suggestions from friends and family but nothing seems to click!! I think I'm just waiting for a flash of inspiration!! So any ideas much appreciated, I have a reg name for him, just not a stable name,
Here are some pics of him and mum

Congrats!
Flash Gordon, because the blazey stripe is pretty distinctive and gordon is a great stable name! Or how about Flash of Inspiration, as you say yourself!
Or an Irish theme: James Joyce, Ulysses, Dedalus, Giant's Causeway, Heaney, Star of the Sea.
Good luck with him

I loke Seymour or Hector...nice rounded names that are unlikely to be shortened and he looks like he will be a handsome gentleman.
 
He'll name himself!

We spent 2 weeks trying to think of a name for one of ours, eventually she named herself! "Winnie the Poo". Because she fell into the spetic tank and had to be rescued.
 
Thanks for the ideas everyone!!! To be honest I had thought of Flash but I already have a Flash here so that wouldn't really work, but I do like Gordon! I was thinking of naming him something to do with his stripe but bear in mind he will probably go grey so the stripe won't always be there!! His reg name will probably be the prefix of our stables Bouncer as his dad is Grange Bouncer, but I think he doesn't really look like a Bouncer for stable name!!!! Other suggestions have been Benjamin, Spike, Jeremy, Leonard, Sebastion, Timothy, Milo, Basil?
Madasaferret lol at yours falling into the septic tank!!! Theres a stream in his field but he hasn't been brave enough to cross it yet.
