It's that time again and I haven't a clue as I was so thrown Sparks wasn't a ginger filly!

Can you cast your eye over these please and say what you think too? Your own suggestions would be very welcome.

The name I wanted, I can't have as it's an actual prefix too (Spellbound) so casting about in the dark. I'm not sure if I want my prefix either as it doesn't sound 'right' for an Anglo Arab somehow so would like something that can stand alone but isn't too pretentious - or hard to say! ;)

Sire is H Tobago, dam is Witches Broom.

I can have these (but can check on others easily enough) in no particular order -

Island Wizard
Mystic Isle
Magic Bago
Bago Magic
Bago Wizard
Voodoo (would this put people off?)
Sparks Might Fly

I can't have Taboo except with my prefix or Island Magic (my second choice, lol!)

Ice cold Magniers for helpers!

I can't believe you don't want to use your prefix on him. He's so lovely. I would want to claim every scrap of credit for him!

Lol, I know what you mean and I am torn about it. It would have to be a one word name if I did like Voodoo or Taboo or ??????

Sparks might fly is lovely........

BUT surely we can't name a foal without pictures first! tut tut tut

Lol, I thought you's be fed up of him by now but if you insist (although these have been posted before, this hot weather hasn't made it easy to get sparkling pictures of him!)

I like Taboo a lot. And obviously it's nice as he's by Tobago.

I don't think an anglo is so different from other sports horses that he shouldn't have your prefix? You'll be gutted if you don't use it and he goes off and does something totally amazing :p
 
as you are so pleased with him how about, Over The Moon, well that'z what witches broomsticks do! or Cast-A -Spell, or how about dedicating him to the recently demised 'Magic 104'!!!
 
Off on a slight tangent here:rolleyes:, but Witches broom in German is Hexenbesen.

With that in mind, I thought perhaps Hexenbago or Hexabago.

But whatever you decided, he's still a fantastic boy, and surely destined for great things. :D
 
Thanks everyone for your suggestions and the mind is now made up and they've been applied for; postman's gone, no turning back now.

Taboo or Voodoo with my prefix.

I just needed some of you to kick me up the bum so thanks for doing just that.
