We are still eagerly awaiting our new arrival so no pics as of yet but I'd like a shortlist of names for when he / she arrives. Mum is an Arab x Cob coloured mare and Dad a TBx hunter type coloured chap. I guess it may well be coulored but not worried either way.

I like natural names such as Willow ( my NF gelding) but am really struggling. I like Herbie for a boy as Herbert is such a good name for a cheeky little colt. But also I am not overly into human names for animals and like something that can be a show name as well as shortened to a pet name. I am sure you guys will come up with some fab suggestions

funny ones too please x
 
I had the same dillema when I bought my youngester. I like pretty (for a mare) names that aren't 'human' names, and are unusual. I ended up sticking with the name he came with (piper).

My list included

Summer
Autumn
Lottie
Fern
Friday
 
oooo, kallibear's summer, so as a uni sex thing it could be summer storm? storm if it's a boy (or girl) and summer as a girl?

I do Like Lottie as if we had had a girl (we had four boys!!) she would have been charlotte Isabelle Rose shortened to Lottie but I worry it's a bit sad naming my foal after the child I never had!!

Fearne is a gorgeous name though

Holly (goes with willow)
Show name would be Ilex (latin name for holly)

Rose Bay willow herb (herby for short)

Meadow herb
 
Stenton this was my friends maiden name thought it was a brill name for a horse , seeing as i will never use it i am giving it to you, also i had a Rico , which is also a good name x
