You all know how this goes but this is with a twist, someone says a horse name (ex. Lucky, Max,Leon) and you rate it out of 10 points and say why.
 
Go to page:
10/10 Moonlight Sonata is one of my favourite pieces. I think it’s fit a calm appy mare really well. I also like it since my QH’s dam’s name is Sonata Bar San.

Mine are:
Blu/Blue
Blaize
Star
Winter
Dusty
Acorn
Pumpkin
Caramel
Toffee
Spice
Jax
Arrow
Shadow
Moonlight
Midnight


Sorry that’s a lot I maybe got a bit carried away default smiley ;)default smiley :s

Blu/Blue- 9/10 I like this one even though it isn't original. It reminds me of the jurassic world deinonychus(not a velociraptor)
Blaize- 6/10 Not terrible but I don't get much meaning out of it.
Star - 7/10 Sweet but still common.
Winter - 7/10 Maybe for a white mare.
Dusty - 4/10 Just to reused.
Acorn - 5/10 Cute and simple.
Pumpkin - 5/10 I feel like this one is seasonal.
Caramel - 4/10 Over used.
Toffee - 4/10 Over used.
Spice - 6/10 Sounds cool but could use more meaning.
Jax - 8/10 Unique
Arrow - 6/10 Could mean the weapon or the type of arrows you point with. I would put an adjective in here.
Shadow - 7/10 Cool but not original.
Moonlight - 6/10 Elegant but overused.
Midnight - 5/10 If you want a dark name this would work but it doesn't have a lot of beauty to the pronouciation.

Mine:
Carpe Diem
Song of the Wild
Strict Regime
Royal Command
New-Age Dream
High Prospects
Fruitful Treasure
Carpe Diem- 6/10not my style
Song of the Wild- 10/10 great for a horse with the wind element!
Strict Regime- 2/10 weird
Royal Command- 8/10 good for a horse with a large personality!
New-Age Dream- 4/10 too odd
High Prospects- 4/10 ok
Fruitful Treasure - 9/10 nice!

Mine:
Skippy
Casper
King of the Wind
Bella
Autumn

They are all kind of ok all in the 7/10 range totally reasonable names

The only one I would rate low like 2/10 or 3/10 is Karolina and Carolina. One name or the other is ok but together that is just confusing. In game it will work and is pretty easy to sort out IRL no thank you. "hey go grab Carolina and tack her up!" "Ummm which Karolina?" Might be ok if they developed barn names like just C and K but wow what if they were in the same show, the same class. Mind I'm probably overthinking. I do that.

Let's see a while back some one posted horses they knew in real life and I liked that.

Rocket (super tall super fast chestnut)

Spot (yeah he was and appy)

JingJingJingel (jockey club name) barn name Jinx (big sweetheart gray ottb)

Oliver (the horse I should have bought but I was a kid with no money)

Rambo (retired dun polo pony with the bumpiest trot ever and a tendency to be head shy. Also the first horse I fell off of)

Rocket - 4/10 A super tall super fast chestnut horse is actually the kind of horse I would expect to be named Rocket

Spot - 7/10 I love appies named Spot T^T It's cliche and adorable

Jinx - 10/10 I am so biased to the name Jinx 1. cause I love Arcane and the character Jinx and 2. I would name a horse Jinx in a heartbeat

Oliver - 6/10 pretty cute! Love a little Ollie

Rambo - 5/10 its cute!


Here's my list of names from my horses!

Satin - the most kind-hearted and gentle grey appy/QH mare
Tommy - kind of skittish grey appy/TB mare
Mickey - a large boy, big mans. White appy/QH gelding
Carlos - the sweetest orange appy/arab gelding you will ever meet

Lilac 7/10 not a fan of the actual flower which means I'm biased but overall good name
Lily 10/10 mind we currently have a mare named Lily visiting our barn and she JUST had a little foal Pumpkin so I'm again very biased
Fearless (The name of the gypsy Vanner I ride) 7/10 great in the show ring too long for every day IMO (mind WAY more original than the Gypsy I used to ride named... Gypsy)
Midnight 8/10 cliche but for a reason
Ricochet 7/10 same as fearless great in the show ring too long for every day, I'd wind up calling him Ric
Mercy 6/10 interesting old fashioned and oddly ominous
Sugar 8/10 cliche but solid

Again horses I know/knew

Frodo - my first lesson pony stocky shaggy and did indeed go barefoot

Charlie - TALL andilusion (spelling I know) Arabian cross who is SUCH a kind gentleman in lessons, I call him Chuck

Happy - an oddly stubborn palomino quarter horse andilusion cross (looks like a unicorn when you take his mane out of its braids)

Nick - big retired chestnut warmblood who still thinks he's in the show ring no matter who is riding

Ashe - 8/10 - super cute but I feel like I would never use it
Queen - 6/10 - super basic
Dewdrop - 10/10 - my dream horse is named this!
Aqua marine - 5.5/10 - not my style, kinda long
Raining Gold - 9/10 - love this name, it’s so pretty
Icicle - 8.5/10 - kinda basic but really pretty
Avé Maria - 7.5/10 - pretty, but not my first choice for a horse name


My names:

Whiskey
Bella
Kalani
Viento
Fifi
Reno
Trip
Tucker
Lavender
Rusty
Lulu
If it is people names I would give it 3/10 because if you say “Come on Charlie” then it sounds like you are calling a person, and people will be confused. Horses are great, but they are not humans. default smiley (n)
If it is something made up, like dragon or midnight or happy, then it is at least an 8, because people will know you are talking about a horse. default smiley (y)
