I always take pride in coming up with a terrific name for my 2yo's....

So what are the best names you have come up with??

I've had a few I've quite liked:

Hay Good Looking
Hay Hey Baby
Pony N' Guy
Frank LeHoof
Ruud Van Nistlepony

Named one Monster (not original but he won 32/32 races)
and One McCain (Frankel approach named after a great trainer which won 31/34 races including £15M prize money)

Made of Glue is my favourite named of my current horses.
I get all my horse names by going to wikipedia and hitting random.

Don't really have any great names at the moment, but I get all of mine from randomly listening to songs. I will just take a line from a song that I like and apply it as a name. For instance, I will listen to Sounds of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel and get the name My Old Friend or Darknessmyoldfriend just from the first line. Then every time the horse races I feel the need to sing a bit of the song to myself. haha

Eats Roots and Leaves - was my best attempt

My very first breeding produced a great filly who won 6 races as a 2yo including 3 G1s.
she then came out the following season and won a G2 and then the G1 1000 Gns.

Unfortunately she went through her racing life under the name of "UN-NAMED" as I didn't realise the naming window slammed shut minutes after you receive the horse.

The horse did slow down a bit after her Guineas win so she was packed off to the breeding barn and I am still waiting for her first crop.

I'm now extra careful on the first day of the season not to press any buttons until everything has been named.

I've started naming after actual horses to stop myself from giving terrible names to horses but I'm careful to make sure I only give good names to high potential horses! I'm still to use the name Frankel, I'm waiting till I get a guaranteed superstar 10 furlong horse!

Hahahaha exactly what I am doing, waiting for a terrific filly so I can name her Makybe Diva or Black Caviar....



I also love doing this. Named one "More Than A Feeling" after the Boston song. Now can't get it out of my head........



Ahhhhh the Wikipedia idea is a good one!! First two articles I got were: 'Richard Vogt' and 'Georgios I of Makuria'.............. Don't ask........

Roy Cropper is my fav. also won some decent races, Arkle, Tingle Creek and JN Wine Champion Chase.

bet he cooks up a storm on the racetrack
