Hi Everybody! When I bought my bay quarter horse, his registered name was Bay Bon Ricvic, and he was called Ricky. That didn't set well with me. I was at the fence watching him play, prance and run out in the pasture after I brought him home. He was so beautiful when he ran - just like the wind. From that moment on I called him Windy. He had no trouble answering to his new name - it had the same rhythm as his old name. We spent a lot of time together. Didn't need to gentle him, I think he was just born that way. A neighbor of mine helped me train for barrels. Windy took to it and our times were good! He was everything I could have wanted in a horse. Most days I would come home from school, saddle(Western) him up, and off we'd go, all around the high hills and through the woods. At the end of each school year, I would invite my first graders and their parents for the class picnic at my place. How the kids loved Windy! Each child rode in the saddle and I jumped on behind. What a thrill it was for the kids. Windy could have gone round and round the yard all by himself with each child. I'm sure he knew just how precious each little buckaroo was! Even some of the parents would ride with their children. I could share stories about our adventures from now until well after sunset tomorrow! That was a loooong time ago, and Windy has since passed on. I still miss him. I've heard it said there is that one horse who comes into your life and winds up in your soul. That was Windy. mynenny1120 aka Renny

Well my little Poco mare is actually has 2 names and a nick name shes my Little Girl and the two names are Cochina If ya know spanish ya know what that means. When she was little she acted like one when we up at a clinic. Then when I started working with her she was so good so I had to give her a name for when she is good. So that one is Kachina. Any way she is my single footin quarter horse. Just love her! :)

Possum.... His registered name is Smoke This Chic..Everyone says Possum is a stupid name for a horse...well I like unique names and I've never heard of a horse named Possum before...So, that's the name he's stuck with!

My Old TB's name was Restrike...Barn name: Snort, my saddlebred's name is: Renegade's Danish Prince...Barn name: Booger...and then there was Candy Dancer...Barn name: @#%&#$%...hahahahaa... Katie

He's an Appaloosa, I call him "Frog" becuase he's got a spot on his hip that looks like a frog or a maple leaf. But if I want him to sound like the gorgeous horse that he is I call him Cayenne, because he looks like he's been sprinkled with red pepper. I've been told that it's hard to get an older horse registered but I'd sure like to try, the previous owner said he has a "Breeders Certificate" for him, he's 17 years old. Paula

K.C. or papered name Kansas City Girl. Warmblood-quarter horse cross.Best mare I have ever owned.She is a ranch roper and can do anything else.Smarter that most most females I know,with 100 times more the try.

I thought that was a pretty good name. Knew of one a few years ago who's registered name was "Beats Walkin"..LOL Annie

My daughter decided to name our (new) horses after American cities....so far, we have Boston, Vegas , and Hollywood. Boston (my filly) recently went lame in both front feet, so I'm looking for a ride for the summer, while Bos recovers from her injuries. I'm thinking of naming the new horse Telluride....'cause I'll be riding it TIL I RIDE Boston, again. Get it???? (okay. that was pretty lame, even for me. will probably name the horse that, tho, lol)

Each year I name my mule babies in a theme. One year it was flowers and plants. This year its some of my favorite drinks. Whisky and Margrita.

Dang, too early to type. The gray in my profile, he passed away a couple of years ago, his name was Waco Skip Son, my good horse now his name is Lil Doc Hickory, he's the own son of Doc's Hickory. Conn
