Stable Name

[Flibble]

My New horse isnt being vetted until tomorrow but I want to think and plan positive.
He's called Sunview Ten Percent and at the dealers they have called him Sunny and that does not suit him (in my opinion).

So for those of you who are not already fedup with me he is 16.2 Bay TbxISH.

The name that springs to mind is Charlie a) because I like it and b) because it was the name of my mums favourite brother and I love my mum.

PS didnt sleep last night and I feel sick this morning could horse buying be the new super diet ??

Here he is

What a lovely big boy, I agree sunny is a rubbish name for him!

Very hard to give stable names when you're not there with the horse but charlie is good. Always has to be something you don't mind shouting doesn't it?! (Although I'm sure the people who live near mine must love hearing 'Norman' belted out hee hee

)

Or Percy, as a shortened percent? I'm sure you will come up with something that suits as soon as he is tucked up in your stable!

I was thinking percy as well before I saw your reply stencilface!!!

One thing about charlie- i would always be cautious against using a name for that reason, what happens if he turns out not to be great?? I wanted to call my mare foxy, but had a pony before called foxy and he was the best pony you could ever ask for. She would have had a lot to live up to... but she's doing a good job of it.

oooh - he looks lovely - fingers crossed for the vetting.

I like Charlie or Murphy (from the irish bit in him).

 

[hellybelly6]

Wow, he is nice.

I know a bay gelding called Charlie, I like it.

I thought of Vista as in view = sunview
Or Sonny.

Hope you have lots of happy times with him whatever you call him.

 

[Pilib]

Wow he is gorgeous!

What about Ted - sort of from the ten bit?

I also like Percy

I really think handsome, gorgeous boy, is the name though!

Percy would be a great name

 

[Happytohack]

I think Charlie is a great name - but then I could be bias as my mini is called Charlie

 

[longtalltilly]

I like charlie....It suits him

 

[skewbaldpony]

Percy is great!

 

[wishfulthinking]

I'm sure you'll pick something lovely but just wanted to let you know that when he was here in Ireland he was called DRIFTER for short.

[carys220]

I like Percy, or Bertie.

 

[Flibble]

Just have to see if he passes then he might get called 'Bankrupt and Clueless'.

 

[fredthoroughbred]

I think he looks like he should be called something like Finnigan or Murphy...Clearly nothing to do with his show name but hey ho

He is a very handsome boy!! Goodluck with the vetting
