So I just bought a dapple gray appendix quarter horse named Kirby and I have an issue. It's not that I don't like the name it's just that there is another horse at the barn named Kirby and my mom is making me change it or else she will. And I know I should be able to figure this out myself, but nothing has jumped out at me, and if I have to read one more baby name book, I'm going to puke. So here's the deal, he is the sweetest horse ever and I really want his name to reflect his personality, but nothing corny like precious or baby (sorry to those that last statement offends) Hopefully you guys can help me out, it'd be much appreciated!!!

  1. shadow walker,greystroke,dust ryder


  2. Darby.

    :) Thats all I got.

    Good Luck :)

  3. Try something different like Wiley or something usual like Storm or if you like the two name thing you could do Dark Storm. I also kind of like Jazz or Jazzy.  

    Hope you like them.

  4. Ive had a couple of horses in the past - I had always kept the names they had when I bought them but here are a few...

    Kodak, Zuko, Moped, Jaxon, Brody, Jester... Hope you find a name - good luck!

  5. Name him something totally opposite of his personality; lol-makes people think. I have a black frosted super-sweet Appy and his name is STORM. :o)

    Check out foreign words for the color "grey" and that might yield something interesting for you to consider.

  6. I like names that are uncommon. Spanish Or another foriegn language have good names.. How about Galioto..thats really good for a dapple gray..

  16. What about lil slick or slew.......or banddit.I hope you pick me as best answer.nver got picked but i hope u pick me.I ride hunter jumper

  17. I am a strange person to ask, I don't own a horse, I own lots of other animals and I name everyone of them. All 160 rabbits, and 40 chickens have names. When the animal is a baby, I hold it in my hands and look into it's eyes, then I hold it against my head, and a name will come to me. Obviously you can't do that with a horse, but you can look into it's eyes and touch heads with it, and I'll almost bet a name will pop in there.

    Edit: For some reason  names for a horse popped into my head, I don't really know why, I was thinking how I wouldn't want my name changed, but if it had to be changed, i would want it to sound close to my other name, so then the name Derby came into my head...and then the name Church. Let me know what you picked, even if it's not mine or you don't try what I said to try.

  18. I like :

    Scout

    Tyler

    Smokey

    Debon

    Teddy

    Charlie

    Jake

    Poacher

    Ike

  19. A good horses name could be Chance.

    Yankee Doodler or Yankee Doodle(s)

  21. That's too bad you have to change it, as Kirby is a neat name!

    Here are some thoughts/suggestions:

    Coal

    Meko

    Dazzle

    Tex

    Amigo

    Kid

  22. How old is he?

    Cause you might want to find a name that rhymes with his original one, so he doesn't get confused.....

    Not sure what sort of style you like with horse names lol..

    But here are some I could think of that rhyme..

    -Herbie

    -Derby

    -Curry

    -Murrie

    .....

  23. um...

    i know a gray named=cody

    i would go with something like Falcon, or Houdini, maybe something from a disney movie... like Mickey?

    i like Roxas, Raja, Roscoe, Amadeus, Winchester, Maverick, Mufasa, Reeve, Reno?

    i was going to suggest you name him sammy, cuz i have a friend whos name is sammy gray and he's like the nicest funniest guy on earth... but then i noticed your name is sammie and that might not work out... lol... i like kirby tho... like the little blow up pink nintendo character...

    lol on the sub of nintendo you could name him Mario, Luigi, Bowser (i like that one!), wario, DK,

    the horses at our barn are: Toby, Logan, Legend, Bleep, Cody, Caruso, Paparazzi, Avalon, DJ (double jeopardy), Donatello, Tucker, Max, Jaguar, Skittles, Bob, and Patrick!

    i hope you find some fun in these names...

    you should look into bands that you like or movies that you like or TV shows or video games or something... that's what i did!

    PS i hope you name him Legend or Cody or Max!

    good luck on your venture!
