Himself the Elf is still the cutest pony name I have ever heard.

[Dana]

The best one I've come up with comes with a tiny story.

I bred an Appendix QH mare who was bay with a little white on diagonal legs and a small blaze to a dark sorrel stallion who only had a thumbprint-sized star. Okay, so I'm thinking bay or sorrel baby with marginal white.

Well, this mare pops out this colt who was a bright, orange sorrel with a bald face, sock on one front leg, stocking on the other, stockings on both hind legs up into the gaskin. Disconnected white spot on one gaskin, big white belly spot and flaxen mane and tail! OMG, he was bright! LOL

Anyway, I named him Kickstart My Heart, since I almost had a heart attack when I first saw him and wondered if I was ever going to be able to get QH papers on him. He wound up being double-registered QH and APHA, sold for a ton of money as a yearling and had a very good show career. Worked out okay!

[JenEM]

I love the show names of some of the ponies at my old barn--Dust Bunny, Uptown Girl, and Just Dew It. Why is it that ponies always seem to have the cutest names? /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[Lisamarie8]

that my instructor in college had her Prelim mare registered with the USCTA as "Quantum Leap" I thought that was one of the best event horse names ever.


I have one with a story too /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

My best friend owns a stallion (daddy of my 2 y.o) and his registered name has the word Sport in it...so we're always trying to come up with registered names that go with that. The favorite one I came up with was "Sportin' Wood" I of course thought i was TERRIBLY clever and funny, Lisa informed me it probably wouldn't fly. /infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif Some people just have NO sense of humor /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[Tootsie]

My favorite show name is for my eventer right now. His name is Favor the Bold. It came from the saying fortune favors the bold. He is wonderfully brave x-c so I thought it fit perfectly.

No locker room speeches. No playbooks. No contracts or free agents. Not even a word spoken between teammates. Doesn't that make it the greatest of all team sports?

[C-Urchn]

I saw the name in print a few times.
It's SO ingenious! /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[drifting cloud]

My horse's registered name is "Sunday Afternoon." This didn't do a whole lot for me, but I wanted a show name that was similar to his everyday name (Sunny).

After I owned him for a little while, I came up with "Mostly Sunny." He is such a good boy most of the time, so it really fits his personality and how I feel about him. I've gotten several compliments on his name at shows.

Before Sunny, I had a mare named Bess. Her show name was "Elizabethan." I always liked it, but my husband thought it was kinda snobby.

[Nylar]

I think my favorite is a pony mare that is at my old barn. She was born on April Fool's Day, so her barn name is April, and her show name is Nobody's Fool. How cute is that?!

"Technology is my friend, and sooner or later I will beat my friend into submission."

[Lavender Menace]

I knew a horse named Aqua Fortis, which apparently means "strong water" or similar. The people who bred and foaled him named him that because when he was still very young, he got separated from his mother and fell off a bank into a river, and was stuck there for awhile until someone realized he was missing. He was quite sick afterwards apparently, but he recovered, ending up as a very beautiful but VERY ill-humored stallion who once (among other sins) bit someone on the face! Anyway, I thought it was a cool name.

[FairWeather]

Hands down, the best pony name EVER!

[Pixie Dust]

I think many of the show names are kind of dumb....but I love some of the show pony names. Remember the show jumper called Fat City? I thought that was funny!

[JustJumpIt19]

Best I ever came up with was my 17.3 hand TB's show name- Look N C

~Courtney~

[PaulaM]

There were two show ponies here in the Edmonton area that had names I thought were terrific.

The first was a bay arab pony who was retired this year. His show name was "Set to Go" and his barn name was B.J. This pony started many young riders on their hunter careers.

The other is a gray pony who has recently moved to Ontario. His show name is "Let's Make Magic" and his barn name is Merlin. He is a fantastic pony that has a great temperment. Actually, his owner is showing him at the Royal in the Large Pony Division.

[Pegster_1]

a few years ago i was at a fair and from the western ring i heard : DADDY PAYS THE BILLS
i thought that was sooo funny!

i also like Pony Pony Macaroni and James Blonde

[drifting cloud]

Several years ago, there was a horse eventing in Area III. His name was Cash D. Pleter. I loved that name. LOVED it!

[dmj]

As a kid I rode a little chestnut mare w/ a blaze and 4 really high white stockings, she was called "Sock it To Me" /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

*Go Bruins*

[Applesauce]

For the ponies the best I've seen are:

Home Aroan
Ponydotcom
Show And Tell (My sister's old pony)
Toy Story

For horses my all time favorite is Idle Dice. I just think that name is so cool.

Also like Whodunnit (Jumper owned by a police detective I know)

I also really like the name Shine for that Stallion in California. He is aweseome and really does "shine".

~Courtney~

[Court@HJ-OH]

I know of a prelim jumper with the name "Always on Top", barn name Topper!

My horse's show name was "My Savior" when I bought him and I tried to show him three times and he always came up with a minor injury the day before we left like clock work! So I changed his name to "Just My Luck".

Also I love the nane Designated Driver!

Courtney!! and of course Momo feels the same way.

I was at a show and heard the announcer announce Daddy Said No. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

The first show I rode in many years ago was on a school horse named Why Not?

I also showed a horse named Alimony for a woman. Guess how she got him.

[Waterwatch]

The "Daddy" name must be popular.

At Catskills this year I heard one pony called, "Don't Tell Daddy" and and another one, "Thanks Dad". Obviously two different families.

I also like this one... I think it's a jumper, "Go Big or Go Home".

[Kennett Square]

A jumper Shep Welles had called Carolina Trucker....it looked just like you would envision one to be. Never a stop and always went no matter what.

[Snidgie5]

There was a mare at my barn in Ct who before she was broke caught her nose on something and had to have it stitched. It healed but left behind a bit of a flap. She had no name still when this happened (we were calling her chestnut filly, how original) so she earned the name Nozy. Her show name was Everybody's Business.
There was another one who was born with full size ears. Her barn name: Ears.
There's a mare up here named Legal Fees. I really like that one.
There was a mare in Ct named Dad's Mercedes. My dad always thought that was really funny.
I was working with a pony when I was fourteen or so. She was chestnut with a thick white blaze and four white socks up to her knees and hocks. We named her Short Sleeves because she looked like she had on a t-shirt.

[serengeti36]

I have to come back and read the whole thing later, but I grew up with a Sho'Nuff Tuff Stuff gray welsh pony. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Tuffy! I never rode him but he was around. Wait, Bailey, you're from SC aren't you? Was that Tuffy at Brickhouse, at Stono River before? Christin Urrichio had him? that the one?

I rode at Shep's barn as a kid-Trucker was the COOLEST horse ever!

I agree, Al Capony is just not toppable. I remember Sho Nuff Tuff Stuff, if it's the same one /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Retirement Fund was another cute one.

My horse's show name now is Otsuka-terrible for announcers, but has a cool story: When my trainer bought him at 3 off the track, she named him Pookah (for the invisible white rabbit in the movie Harvey-I think it's the best horse name of all time, but I'm a little prejudiced). She couldn't come up with a show name for him, and finally was flipping through one of her mom's interior design catalogs. Saw an ad for a lighting company called Otsuka and thought it sounded cool. Fast-forward to us buying him, 15 years later. My dad bought some stock in an electronics company shortly after we bought the horse. Got the annual report-they had just bought out the original Otsuka company. Creepy.

[serengeti36]

I like "My Little Pony Macaroni", I like the Clever names: Ever So Clever, and Forever Clever. We have a Subpoena This at my barn. I like Storm Warning and Ursa Minor. I like the earlier Go Big or Go Home name. I love show names, I'll have to think of some more I know and come back.

I remember a Daddy's Porche a while back.

Al Capony is definately my favorite. Is there only one or are there multiple Al Caponys. The one I remember was a dark bay medium.

I know someone who's grandfather asked "when are you going to name a horse after me?", so she did: Grandad

When I was a kid I had a little grey welsh/x pony named Bumblebee. I used to ride a horse named Jim Dandy.
My Brother-in-Law who trains TB race horses has had some interesting names such as:
Bisextile

Cozys Mint Julip

Actually, that is not true, and that is not what the Chronicle said. If I remember correctly, and actually I've never had this conversation with Elsbeth who I went to high school with and showed with all summer, but she bought Elsie from Sandra Brown, who had given her the name. I believe it does have something to do with a grandmother, but I tend to think it also was the name of a boat maybe? I'm not sure. I'll ask her next time I talk to her.


I rode an eq horse in my junior years whos name remains my favorite. She was Comic Relief, nicknamed Giggle in the barn.

I like my new horses name.. Country Grammar. Its a song by Nellie... but I named him that because hes very country (being a paint and all) and hes "in grammar school." I'm a dork. What can I say. /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I knew of one called "Call Me a Taxi." I liked that one!

I've always wanted to name a jumper False Confidence.

[ponygrl]

When I bought Figgy, I knew he was registed with the JC as "Bugler" but I'd never caught his barn name. As we pulled away I decided to try and see if he had SOMETHING better, and asked what his barn name was "oh, we call him Figgy because he liked Fig Newtons when he was a baby". Yay! rad barn name! so on the way home, 3 hour drive, I was trying to think of a name, and planning his event career. I was like "and in our cooler we can bring Fig NEwtons, they're healthy, right? Its not just a cookie - its fruit and cake" hence Notjustacookie.

However we did not have much luck with his show career under that name. so we're considering changing it to "Fueled By Ramen" now that he is owned by a college student who pays all his bills. (Its the name of a record company too)

Tuff Stuff's barn name was Vea (sp~ Nat?)...I'm sure you're thinking of the same one...he was in the Charleston area for a number of years, as was my first pony, Miz Scarlett~ who was at Brickhouse for a long time before I was finally able to buy her back. As for cute names, we had a palomino pony we called Sunny Side Up, and a fat little teeny grey we called PufNStuf. Hmmm...lemme see, we also had a Lost My Marbles (he was half Arab, tee hee!) There used to be a western horse around here called Daddy's Money...that's all I can think of... /infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif SUZ

Is Legal Fees barn name April? if its the same mare, her dam's barn name was "Snitch" and April is just like her.

[OnceAThief]

which I decided on AFTER he went into early retirement (I was still hoping he'd make a comeback.. never did /infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif ) was "Just Delighted." I'm going to use it for whatever next horse I have.. maybe I'll reuse Swift's show name (since he never made it to a show either) and have another "House of Mirth." /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Oh my god! HuntJump, we've met. I rode Scarlett for two years of walk trot, a year of cross bar and a year of short stirrup. We met at Brickhouse at some point but I was twelve or thirteen at the time. Did you have Rhett too? He belonged to a little girl after Scarlett went back to you. (I think that timeline is right, but as I said, it's been a while) We called him Tuffy but I'm sure that the barn named was changed a couple of times. Kids, first horses, name changes.... Wow, that's so cool... The things that happen on Bulletin Boards...

Snidgie5 - do you know where the Everybody's Business mare is now? A couple of years ago my moms friend was boarding her horse at a small farm in S. Florida & there was a mare there with the same exact barn name & show name. Can't remember 100% but I think she was a WB, I lessoned with her & her owner once but like I said it was like 5 years ago.

[Tap2Tango]

Yeah...I LOVE the name PonyDotCom!!
My friend Brittany had a small pony with 3 socks and a beautiful bald face complete with a wall eye.....So they called her Lost My Sock and Socks for short. She was such a sweetie....She was probably the most auto pony I'd ever seen...She never learned lead changes....She just did them, and she would go around the course like a champ...but at 60mph! /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

And HuntJump, of course.. Is Brickhouse (uhm.. is that right?) in Charleston? You guys have made me remember the most random things. A girl that rode with us in Blythewood (a friend, she rode Kate before she moved to Atlanta) lived in Charleston and either rode there or talked about it a lot. I remember her now talking about a little girl in her barn trying out Suz's Frosty pony long before he ended up at the B'Wood farm..

Couldn't move worth crap, but he would wow them o/f, he was a packin' machine! Do you know the first time I rode him (age 8) he threw me off...and he didn't have his changes for the first few months I owned him. I REALLY want my pony back if he is still alive! I'll have to scan some pic's I have of him...from when I was little, he he! I owned him for 3 years, I think it was from 84-87. He was the bestest pony ever! Natalie

Glannant Nauticus was shown in the midwest as Al Caponey during 1992. Then he came to VA and was shown by Ryan Wilcoxin then Elizabeth Coughlin under his registered name until he broke down. He was a dark bay w/ white blaze and chrome LARGE pony.

There was a better known medium that began showing in 1993 which is why the Cantwells began using their pony's registered name.

Oh how I want my pony back...I hope he is still alive...he would be like 32 years old now. I last saw him at a Sea Island show at DeerCreek in January of '97. I was so very pregnant with my son (who was born in Feb). I would have stolen him then if I could...but he was still showing strong and winning everything! Please if anyone knows of my Sho' Nuff Tuff Stuff....LET ME KNOW!!! I will scan some pic's of him when I had him and post them! Natalie Kimball

Put me down as another vote for "Ponydotcom" /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I am not sure if there are more than one Ponydotcoms out there, but the one I saw at WEF one year was a POA with BIG ole spots on his butt - true blanket, not roany like a lot of POAs - made the "dot" part even cuter /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Aside from all my horse's show names, which naturally I like the best, /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif my favorite was the name that was already taken... A filly by Tsunami Slew, out of Stage Door Betty... We wanted to call her "Taming of the Slew" /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Other faves outside the h/j world were Tuffernhel by Tuff Stuff and Redlightstop and Greenlightgo, both by Traffic Cop, and one of my all time favorite horses "Two's Not Enough" by Three Martinis.

[serengeti36]

Oh my god! Scarlett is alive! Wow. that actually brings tears to my eyes. That wonderful wonderful pony. Well there were two problems with Rhett, one was that he wasn't the fancy pony the kid decided she wanted AND he got her number. He would canter around the corner, drop the shoulder and dump her every time. (she just didn't want to admit that when they went to sell him I'm sure)Rhett adn I spent some quality time together /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

That pony was good as gold unless he figured out his rider was just along for the ride. It was quite funny...I watched a student of mine ask for a canter one time, he simply stopped, put his head down, gave one good buck & off she came. Then he just stood there & looked at her like "OK, NOW what are ya gonna do?" /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif I sure wish I knew what happened to him... /infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif SUZ

[Tin]

I've only been able to name two of my guys. First one was Spill The Beans , Bean for short. He was my first pony and when we got him he was skinny and ugly. I called him Ben but every teased me that he looked like a "Bean" so it stuck /infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

Second one was Galica our baby, had to be a "G" name and her barn name is Gali (mom is Kalibrie) and so it's like "Gatica" the movie but with an "l". O.k, o.k, I just thought it sounded neat.

I didn't name Tin, he was named by his breeders. He got his name because he used to chase him mom around with a bag of tin cans (trail class prop) as a baby so he was names Tin Can Cody . The Cody part was from his daddy.

We have Top Flite who used to be King Pin origionally and then Top Flight (he's a jumper) but we changed it to spell it like the golf ball brand.

We had Beyond Belief (TB mar hunter), Misty Moo (FAT pony), Smokin Brimstone (small jumper with an attitude) and we have Kalibrie (WB mare who ahsn't yet found her calling /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif )

My daughter's first pony came to us as Whinny the Pooh and she (at age 4) insisted on naming her Queenie, so it stuck eventually and that is still her name (pony's 27 now /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif) Second pony, Haflinger that had to be named by the first letter of her dam's name, so got stuck with Sisi (meaning smile in german), then leased a few, Gisi (god knows what that means)Amore (say the e like an a), Aragon, and then came upon our 6 yr old appendix, called Timbukto because he was shipped to or through every state in the country before he was 5. But we renamed him Braveheart b/c he will jump anything xc no matter what speed, can jump anything from a standstill too. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif kinda bad names, but I think its just our thing.

I'll bet it was the same one. The girl who bought her had a house in Boca I think and took the horse there in the winter. Nozey is a chestnut thoroughbred, and was gorgeous as a youngster.

Snidgie,
I rode her dam a few times. She was a nice ride but mare-ish on the ground. April was foaled where I used to ride and she was like that from the day she was born. I rode her a few times when she was very green. She was doing very well for my trainer but her owner moved her. I rode her once or twice after that and she was a pleasant filly. Legal Fees is a great name.

I'm still trying to come up with a creative name for my filly, who is almost three! She was given to me as a weanling... lllooonnnggg story.... ( despite her being "free" she is a quality animal with a lot of potential! I swear! )

I am trying my best to get my scanner to work. I've got some pictures of him...back in '87-'89 when I had him. That pony is the best! I would love to have an update on him and possibly a pic if you have/can get one! The way to know if it is the same pony: Does he have a fairly large scar on his right hind leg. Around the gaskin area. He had this when I got him...it would be there still today. (An old barbwire accident before I got him I suppose.) I miss my old man and would love to see him again! If they ever want to sell/retire, please let me know! He will always have a special place in my heart. He taught me how to ride, patience, what it was like to be the best, took me to my first A show, was my best friend and so much more!
Thanks, Natalie Kiball

[Camstock]

was a lesson horse where I used to teach. It was perfect for him and I liked the Star Trek reference.

I also knew a nice white medium pony mare named Snowbird. Another perfect match of name to horse.

We have a huge black draft cross that I wanted to name "Angus Humongous" (think angus cattle) but hubby protested. He suggested something to do with feet because the horse would always rest his feet on things (usually the lowest board on the fence, which made hubby nuts). We named him "Foot Perfect" which people who read Capt. Phillips' articles recognize immediately. Fortunately, the horse is a good performer...

The horse I ride now was named "MudShark" when we got him. Ugh. We renamed him "LandShark". Saturday Night Live junkies recognize that immediately. I had someone walk up to me and say, "I'm just a dolphin ma'am" and I almost fell off with laughing so hard. It is so fun when people get it. /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I knew another white pony named "An absence of color". A fast black pony named "Jet", and an intermediate eventer named "More to Burn" who really did have that.

Baileybff:

I think it is the same guy. I was talking to the mother of the kid riding him now and telling her how I had read your post. She thinks it is the same one too. When I get to the barn tomorrow I will try and get a look at his leg for the scar. They just clipped his furry butt so it shouldn't be too hard to spot.

He is about what 24? 25? /infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Tuffy is teaching a little girl who weighs all of 40 pounds to ride now. He is perfect for her since he trots just the right amount and then walks for her. I don't have a digital camera but I will find out from the mom when they are coming again and try and get a picture of them for you. If you can dig up some of your old ones and get them scanned in somehow I am sure they would love to see some of him in his "prime". Let me know.

I don't think so. I think you could use some of those as long as you aren't in teh same area of the country. Obviously you can't name a horse Bold Ruler or Secretariat but these others I think.... but like Dennis Miller, I could be wrong.
