Al has a Tango (passported as Tango IX)... Now, this generally strikes up images of a horse in some shade of orange.

He couldn't be less orange. He's also pretty smart and hopefully destined to be quite good at life, so he's going to have to be Tango at posh shows too!

We also have a Something's Up. Which is pretty silly... Luckily the third musketeer is "White Smoke" which is both pretty and suitable (he's a steel grey)!

I have Colour Me Crazy which my immature friend thought sounded wrong?! His stable name is Cartoon or "toon" he is a 13.3 coloured cob then I have Cwmmawr Fern and Cwmmawr means house on a valley or something along those lines. She is a 15.0 welsh d and stable name is Fern. At yard we have "Jungle Drums II" or Bongo as he's better known as and he's a big ginger friend of mine... a stallion I know got called Her Royal Highness by breeder :/ luckily it wasn't being bred or competed... They called it King in stable lol

My first pony was "Catch Phrase" when he came to me but I think I found his records from Ireland where he was "Something Catchy".

Kenny is "Jim Bob Cross". Just don't even comment.

Love the name something catchy!

Friends horse was called "business" so when people called his secretary could say he was away on business :p

Was going to call previous horse wired to the moon (was super sharp and fresh as a 5 year old) but turned out to be the laziest horse that ever existed :p

One of dad's friends had a horse with passport name of "beneath the sheets" which was interesting when called out at shows :p

One of my friends always had funny names for his horses. He had a lovely big black horse called 'Bin Bag' and when asked he replied because he is black and shiny!

Roo was nameless when he arrived and therefore called Roo (initially Kangaroo but now Rupert Bear for high days and being told off) I was hoping his breed name was something workable but when his passport followed him a week later, it turns out out he's called Kingsmill Hero.

He sounds like a posh loaf of bread! He might as well have been called Warburton.

My new boy's racing name was Fready Cougar (sire: Perfectly Ready). So not only is it weird spelling, he's also named after a fictional serial killer.

I once had a TB called Demented - I didn't name her but now that I breed a few I can think of some great (and sometimes silly) names.

I had 2 foals 3 years ago born 2 days apart & I called them Chaos & Mayhem (stable & passport names) - sold Mayhem but still got Chaos in my life!!!

This year stable names of foals include Weed & Womble.

White smoke is much more acceptable now he's greying out! When I first got him, he was sooo dark, and I had a few (horsey and non horsey) people comment on the 'white' bit lol, but it does suit him and is pretty :)

I bought a youngster called Domino in his passport, and wanted a 'posh' name so changed it to 'the Domino Effect'. I was debating playing with Smokeys name and changing it to 'the Smoke Screen Effect', but wasn't as nice as white smoke.

I've also had a 'Brightspark Owen', which I know is from his sire, 'Dallas Brightspark', but he wasn't exactly a brightspark bless him lol.

We've also had 'The Moose', 'Little Red Rascal', 'Obershade Boy', 'Master Bean', 'Mischief Maker' and 'The Full Monty' between my sister and I, and now I ride 'Gucci's Glory' - bleurgh!!

Friend of mine has a lovely big ISH geldiing called . . . Cuddles.

As an aside, Kal is Polish, as is his passport. The Polish word for "name" is "nazwa" . . . previous owner told me that the people she bought him from used to enter him as "Nazwa Kali" . . . and "Kali" is Albanian for "horse" . . . so . . . passport name is "Name Horse" ;).

I've had a TB called My Life's Ambition (Jack), a filly born in 2000 called Miss Millenium (Millie) who's mum was another TB called Blueberry Dreamer! (Mister Tudor by Majority Blue x Dream Shared) Also knew of another TB mare at the National Stud called Hairbrush! (poor mare).
Currently have a coloured mare called Miss T - Fi (which I hate) and my connie who I had to name as he only had his prefix noted, Brodella Fiontar by Castelstrange Fionn by Abbeyleigh Fionn. (Fiontar being Irish for 'risk or venture', which he was as I bought him from a dealer here with the promise of his papers to come over from Ireland).

Have known horses called Precious Bane, Herbie Rides Again, Prizonerof Azkaban, Granda, and Noddy to name a few...

Our ISH is Kilcloghan Buffet, sire French Buffet, our old horse passport name DJ Capper, named after the person who bred him, we called him Da Dealer as he was by Lightening Dealer and my OH's old event horse was Joyce, she was a Dutch WB and the year she was foaled all those named going into the studbook were given a name beginning with J.
