Re-naming Paint Gelding

a.mckelvey · 10-28-2009, 05:13 AM

I have a super cute 12 yo paint who I'm going to transfer the papers on and give him a new registered name and a new barn name.

His registered name is "Gentlemen's Jack". I hate unoriginal names like Jack (no offense if this is your horse's name) and it sounds like he's a gay male prostitute!

So he needs a new one. His barn name is currently Toby (yes he's a tobiano)- again very unoriginal, so he needs a new one of those too.

I was thinking "Hesa Blingin' Bashee" and Banshee as a barn name- BUT then I realized Banshee is a FEMALE Irish spirit.

So I need opinions.

EDIT: Added the pictures and I like ____ War Paint... I kinda Like Apachean War paint, but don't love Apache as a Barn name, and I want then to connect.. Iwould like for his barn name to be 2 syllables and have the -y sound ending. (-y, -e, -ie, -ee, etc.)

THANKS~

I can start shooting off names... but it would be better for you if you gave some sort of theme. =D

P.S. He IS super cute!!

P.P.S.... you could resort to "Hesa Blingin' Banhee"... get rid of the "she" to make it masculine... of course, it doesn't sound as good...

Some other names for a Banshee...

Washer of the Shrouds
Washer at the Banks
Washer at the Ford
Cointeach
Cyhiraeth
Cyoerraeth
Gwrach y Rhibyn
Eur-Cunnere Noe
Bean sidhe
Bean Chaointe
the Bean-nighe
Kannerez-Noz

It doesn't solve the female problem. But people are less likely to realize that you're talking about a chick monster.

Haha... Well though those certainly fit the banshee theme, I actually don't have a theme... I just heard Banshee some where and liked the way it sounded, only recently di I decide I would see what it meant...

So this is more of an open ended/theme question... Just looking for a cool/ unique name that would suit him...

Some more info about his character: He loves to eat (as the pictures show) and he loves to run. Very friendly, but like to play the chase me game from time to time.

I thought of Pick Up the Pace (that was actually the name of the stud Bulldog I bred my Female with last) But I don't like Pacer as a barn name... I kind of like the -y -ie -ee endings, but not limited to that if I hear something that's catchy.

Sorry I don't have more direction!

a.mckelvey · 10-30-2009, 12:09 PM

I thought of something I kinda like ... Apachean War Paint- Barn name Apache or War... THought it was cute, but still interested in others' ideas!

LogicalDaydream · 10-30-2009, 02:14 PM

Apachean War Paint... great name!

And I think Apache is a super cute barn name. =)

a.mckelvey · 11-01-2009, 07:22 AM

Still not completely compelled by Apache... Anyone want to suggest other Indian and/or tribe names?
