Tell me your horses nicknames

[DressageCob]

My profile picture is my horse, Toby (Toby's Kid).

He gets Toby, Mr T, Tobles, Toblerone, Tobias, tank, supercob, wondercob, Toby Cob. Nothing too exciting.

That bay is very very beautiful

Aw thank you so much ?
I’m so proud of him. He came to me in may last year as an emergency rehab who was so thin I thought he was going to die.
he’s done ok!

 

[vmac66]

Amongst other names my mare Indie gets called Windy.
The other one this time of year is Crabby Annie. Don't know where It came from.

 

[millikins]

My lovely Deccles, (Silverfield Commons, a.k.a, Declan) who's 23 next year, has enough quirks to write a book about and remains extremely rude in stubble fields.

 

[Pinkvboots]

Arabi used to get called Arabina ribena but I just shorten it to Bean.

Louis gets called Lou Lou or Louis Lou Lou or biter he has been known to occasionally bite ?

 

[Mosh]

The bloody orange horse - a farmer shouted it once as she walked around eating all his hay seed
And the ginger basket for when she is on it and we forget how to trot. Or walk

 

[teddypops]

Poppy is usually just known as Pops but also the popmeister, stroppy Poppy, poptastic and the queen! My Shetland, Abby is known as Abfab, Abbycus, Miss Abby and Abbaliscious. Arthur is usually Artyfarts and I don’t have nicknames for the others Neo, Piper and Cara.

 

[Snow Falcon]

Missy gets called Missy-Moo, Flicka-Miss Perfect (that's what weighbridge lady said she was). Pepsi, obviously Pepsi Cola. Heidi-Heidi Hoo.

 

[milliepops]

Most of mine get appended to their actual name
Kira-Clip-Clop (though she is always greeted with "hi gorgeous" cos she always has a pretty face on
Darcy Doorknob
Salty Peculiar
Twiggy-woo
and so on.... though pumpkin seems to be a generic pet name that works for them all

Frankel hasn't got a nickname yet though he is variously Frank and Frankie so who knows, that's still evolving
And OH has called Hera "Dave" from the moment she took her first breath. Whyyyy

 

[Caol Ila]

Foinavon is Fin or Pony.



Hermosa is Teen Mum, for obvious reasons, or Momma Bear, because she initially was the most foal proud thing in the world.



Gypsum never had a nickname, not in 21 years.

 

[windand rain]

Hazel is the golden child or old trout depending on what she needs

Rowan is little fatty although she is no longer fat

That picture of Hazel is fabulous

 

[Ratface]

The Orange Loon is called that because he is, and Ratface because that's the menacing expression he makes over the door when the staff don't produce his feed trug fast enough.

 

[scats]

Polly gets P, Pol Pol or Polly Rocket.
Millie is generally Mill, Mill Mill or Miss Maloo.

 

[Celtic Fringe]

My cob was 'little one' as he was the baby of the herd and also the smallest. At 10 he is now properly grown-up so sometimes gets called 'Fatty Lumpkin' - he loves his food and is nearly as clever as the pony with that name in Lord of the Rings. The yard groom calls him 'Poopy Loopy' as what goes in comes out the other end in huge quantities!

 

[Berpisc]

My friends horse glories in the nickname Baggage bum. One of the ponies, Prince is a sensitive soul and gets referred to as His Princiness/Majesty .

 

[Sossigpoker]

Sausage ? he actually responds to it as well ?
That and lil man.

 

[CinnamonChristmasCookie]

Lord, I hope your thumb heals up ok, OP!

Mine is Beau, nickname Bojangles, pony, frequently Oy you, or to my OH ‘your big dog’ because he has great recall and follows me round.

 

[AShetlandBitMeOnce]

Jacob - was known as many things, sh*t bag being the main one. Jacob, Jakey, Jacob Barnes (no idea why) which became Jacob bakes, which became bakeface. Trouble was another common one.. But the one thing I called him so much it basically became his name was 'bud'. No idea why.

 

[Dave's Mam]

Officially Darshill Banshee, pet name Dave, aka Mr FuzzyPants.

(Gratuitous Snowy Fuzzy pic)

 

[tatty_v]

We have Shadow, who is mainly known as Big Man, on account both of being the biggest of the trio, but also the size of a house when he arrived with us. The vet calls him Shads, which is both terrible and very sticky!

Then there’s Spook, who goes by Spooky mainly (ironic because he’s largely bombproof), but also Special One, Bestest Boy and any other term of endearment under the sun because he is a total legend at nearly 22 and likes to know it.

and last but not least there’s Badger, who is mainly known as Badgy or Badginton. And also for confusion and comedic effect Big Man, because he may be small but he is definitely mighty.

 

[Laurac13]

This is my elderly mini shettie called biscuit which became bicitie boo then just “Boo” which suits him ?

 

[Laurac13]

My Merlin became merlie pops then just “pops”

 

[HighFive]

I have 3 3yo geldings who live together. They are the biggest sticky beaks and always appear to gawk and heckle at whatever is happening. My OH and I would always say "check out the peanut gallery".
So now they are known as "The Peanuts"

 

[SatansLittleHelper]

Rex gets called Sexy Rexy (he is a damn good looking boy ), Doggo (cos he's part dog), CutNShut (hes Connie x Cob...pony head, carthorse body) and Nice But Dim (self explanatory)

 

[SatansLittleHelper]

Rocket is known as WreckItRocket (he breaks everything), Rockstar (because he's awesome) and Magic Mike (because if this boy was a human he would be either a porn star or a male stripper, he really fancies himself lol). Sometimes known as "that f#$%ing carthorse" by our field owner when he breaks something. Again.

 

[smolmaus]

Sadie has been referred to as The Wee Tank several times recently, and I cannot think why, this graceful delicate creature surely that nickname won't stick ?

Otherwise known as Sadie-Moo, The Bog Pony, Sugarplum and Brat.

If Badger happens to go missing, don't come looking my way.... he definitely won't be with me, honestly . Look at that little face, he's scrumptious.

 

[AbbyHayhurst]

Brandy, AKA 'Branners no manners', because he really does not have any manners!

 

[sportsmansB]

Touch is known as 'The Prince' because he is treated like royalty and expects nothing less...
