There’s something magical about naming a horse. We start off as children with little plastic equines that we stable on our bookcases. We give those horses names like Star or Jet. Then we move up to digital models that we pilot through the pixelated worlds of our computer games. We give those horses names like Bramble or Lucky. But when it actually comes down to naming a real live horse, you’ll have to give it a little more thought.
While there may be 101 things that are far more important to consider when bringing home a new horse, somehow choosing the perfect name skyrockets to the top of the priority list. What’s more fun that carefully pondering all of the choices and ultimately selecting the best and most wonderful name? But with limitless possibilities, how do you narrow down the options and make your choice? You know only one name is going to be the right one. So how do you decide?
When naming a horse, you want to choose a name that will be the perfect fit. Maybe the name will reference the horse’s color in some way, or its personality, or its breed or bloodlines. Below, we’ve compiled several different lists, each distinctly suited to different types of horses (and ponies!). We’ve tried not to be too obvious, but if you truly feel that “The Black” is the best name for your ebony-coated equine, you can certainly feel free to go ahead and use it. But for the purposes of these lists, we have tried to move further away from clichés and find creative names that will capture your horse’s qualities and make you smile.
Coat Color Names
Horses are often given names that refer in some way to their coat color or pattern. For example, chestnuts get “red” names like Garnet, Ginger, or Flame. A horse’s coat color is a distinctive part of who he is, so it’s natural to want to incorporate that characteristic into a name. Here are lists of color names that are a bit off the beaten path:
Black Horse Names
- Noir
- Jaguar
- Ebony
- Onyx
- Domino (for a black horse with white markings)
Bay and Brown Names
- Cleveland
- Adobe
- Cinnamon
- Kit Kat
- Brandy
Chestnut Names
- Autumn
- Opie
- Fiona
- Pippi Longstocking (a chestnut with considerable chrome would be the best candidate for this name!)
- Peter Pan
- Russell
Palomino and Buckskin Names
- Blondie
- Rapunzel
- Spirit
- Trapper
- D’oro
Gray Horse Names
- Napoleon
- Pepper
- Snowball
- Lacey
- Traveller
Pinto Names
- Scout
- Little Joe
- Jigsaw
- Pirate
- Rembrand
Type-of-Horse Names
Many horsey people like to name their horses something that relates to their breed. Most breeds have a specific ‘style’ of name; for example, Arabians are often given Egyptian-inspired names, while Welsh Ponies often sport Welsh-inspired names and spellings. Here, however, we’re going to take a look at wider categories of horse types instead of individual breeds.
Draft Horse Names
- Monte
- Baymax (the lovable, inflatable robot from Disney’s Big Hero 6)
- Goliath
- Universe
Sport Horse Names
- Bolt
- Challenger
- Billie Jean (for tennis player Billie Jean King, winner of 39 Grand Slams, or choose the name of one of your favorite sports stars!)
- Fargo
- Jet
- Victory
- Pharaoh (or use the infamous misspelling “Pharoah” if you’re a racing fan!)
Western Horse Names
- Trigger
- Champ
- Oakley
- Bonney (The surname of notorious outlaw Billy the Kid, this name is nevertheless more suited for a mare considering its pronunciation)
- Rio
- Dale
- Gene
- Cash
- Chisholm
Pony Names
- Buttons
- Misty
- Dolly
- Cookie
- Charlie Brown
- Kokomo (Comes complete with its own theme song!)
- Olaf
- Thelwell
Personality Names
You can go a few different routes with this kind of name. You can go by what your horse is—a bit of an alpha mare, a rather quiet gelding—and choose a name that reflects that, or you can give your horse a name that denotes a quality you would like him to have. These lists are just the beginning—use them as inspiration!
Elegant Horse Names
- Isabelle
- Randolphe
- Debutante (Choose this for her registered name, and “Debbie” can be her barn name)
- Marquis
- Juliet
- Henrietta
- Vanderbilt
- Versailles
Bossy Horse Names
- El Jefe (You can’t get much more literal than this; it means “The Boss” in Spanish, and is pronounced El HEH-fay. Use LA JEFA for a mare. )
- Queen
- Boots
- Major
- Barkley
Silly Horse Names
- Barnaby
- Whiskers
- Balki
- Newton
- Tigger
- Buster
- Flopsy (Mopsy and Cottontail would then be ideal names for stablemates)
Names for Well-Traveled Horses
- Paris
- Sicily
- Beijing
- Vancouver
- Utah
- Sydney
- Berlin
- Carolina
- Passport
- London
Names for Cultured Horses
- Mozart
- Jackson
- Beethoven
- Mona
- Dickinson
- Bard
- Da Vinci
- Sullivan
- Chopin
Names for Horse Pairs
In the special case in which you have not one, but two equines to name (you lucky duck!), the process becomes even more complex because it’s multiplied. Double the trouble, if you will. And if you want to choose names that go well together . . . that’s enough to make even the most expert “namer” throw up their hands in defeat.
So if you’re trying to select two perfect names that sound like they belong in adjacent stalls, what better way than to pick a duo that is already famous? Check out this list for ideas!
- Anne & Diana
- Lee & Grant
- Fred & Barney
- Winston & Churchill
- Rhett & Scarlett
- Laverne & Shirley
- Garfield & Odie
- Mary & Rhoda
- Bonnie & Clyde
- Sam & David (Fans of the “Little House on the Prairie” television series will recognize these as the names of Charles Ingalls’ team of powerful chestnuts)
- Frank & Jesse
- Florence & Nightingale
- Sonny & Cher

How about some pretty feminine names for your beautiful mares: Dolly, Lady, Beauty, Princess, Honey, Misty.
Left out a lot of good names. My TWH came with his name Smokey. My mini is Strider because he strides right along. I like Beauty,Max,Pie,Lady,Lucky,Bell,Beau,Rocky,Jasper,Ed, Flicka just to name a few.
My horse is named Jasper-I love Twilight-and his brother is names Casper-You know like the ghost.
I Love that named too! I have a dappled Grey and his name is Casper.❤️
kinda typical, but great ideas.
I seen a lot of great names, just will have to get a few more ponies.
I love CHIEF,FOR A BUCKSKIN STUD,AND SWEET PEA,FOR A SWEET MARE,AND MARIO,FOR A SPUNKY STUD PONY,AND DALLAS,FOR A SWEET/SPUNKY STUD.(: those are my favorites because my horses are named those. haha!
Nice suggestions. I had a Shetland that was named Peanut and also got a Welsh pony who was white except for her brown head I called her Popcorn.
I have 3 horses with great names. I have “Oh-Be-One” also known around the barn as “Kenobi” (because I’m a major Star Wars geek). I have “Rue Britannia” known as “Renegade” (because she acts all nice and proper but can be stubborn and rejects authority often). And I have “Fate and Farewell” known as “Fetch”.
I’ve had many horses the most resent to back is: Kipy Ki Yo Ki Ya,JJTaffy Miss, To Coin A Phrase, Roger,Spade, Dash’s NSF(No Spots Found), Her Halo Slipped, Fancy ALittle Cash, Fancy’s Sunday Special, Sterling, Latte. And there are more…
I love my own horse’s name: Knight. It describes his gentlemanly personality quite well. 🙂
I named my real horse Bramble. It suits her. I see it is on your list short list of reject names. Many of your good names are on my reject list.
I’ve owned over 20 horses in my life time and named 15.
The best name I came up with was Cameron. I think when you buy a horse it is best to stick with the barn name they know. After a while you might think it is best and the horse knows this name. Most of us don’t much like the names our Mothers give us but we usually just live with it. If the best thing about your horse is the smokin hot name you came up with, well…
how about jesse and james if they’re mischevious
I am a model horse collector and one of my favorite things to do is collect interesting names for future models.
I love your names! 🙂
I don’t know where you got them, but they are really cool.
Bo and Luke for team names like in the Dukes of Hazzard show. or Pete and Joe
Team of 2: Romeo & Juliet
Or Rodeo & Juliet for a ranch.
my ponys name is utah
What about Tom and Jerry for a nice ‘pair’?
We have Matthew, Christopher, Henry, George, Wally, Leo, Ellie, Abbie, Ruby, Grace, Jess and Dusty. Then we had until very recently 2 donkeys, Gemma and Fergus – both passed away within weeks of each other. They were very old. We also have a jersey cow named Veronica.
I will be calling my buckskin stallion Esprit, French for Spirit which I thought was a little too cliched plus, I am a huge fan of names that sound foreign, the ones where you feel the need for a different accent or to roll your tongue, things like Javador, Sakura, Sabina or, as I said, Esprit
I had a Palomino Gelding named “Brave Warrior” “Warrior” for short. His mom was Palomino and dad was an Appaloosa. When Warrior was born I used part of his dads named and it proved to be a fitting name because Warrior had a big heart, smart and was my protector. He was the best first horse a girl could have. He definitely enjoyed the spotlight when it came to horse shows, parades, rodeos and trail rides never afraid.
Zodiac themed names are always a fan favourite in my books; growing up I had a bay called Virgo and a quarter horse called Aquarious. I found out a few years later that Virgo is also a Norse Viking male name.
Also Mathimatical themed names, I’ve always thought that BOMDAS (brackets of multiplication division addition subtraction) and Linear were cute name (as in a linear equation)
TV show or Anime character names are good to; a friend of mine has a pair of ponies called Zelda and Link, they also had a pair of donkeys called Natsu and Happy.
Hope this is useful information to anyone
i have a quarter horse paint named Domino, before I had another horse named patches, he was also a quarter horse paint.
Was the picture of the young girl on the chocolate colored Rocky Mountain Horse doing dressage on the best names page in any magazines? She is my daughter and I was wondering how she ended up on the website. She is so honored and excited and was hoping to get more information about when and where the picture was taken and if it is anywhere else.
Thanks so much!!
Actually I was informed it was show jumping not dressage. Lol
This helped me so much!! I’m getting my first horse at the start of April so I badly needed a name and I’ve gone with “Barnaby”. Thank you so much !!
Thanks for the help! Some of my favorite names are: Starlight, Eager Star, Flaming Glory, Hope, Sea Star, and Bold Beauty.

These are okay names but I feel there should be more of a variety
Malika means Queen and Malik means King
I don’t own a horse, but I adore them! I do have a pet desert tortoise that I named “Chasca” after much research. She is named after the Incan goddess of the dawn and the dusk…
I would name a female horse Chasca for sure! And a pair….well, Dawn and Dusk!
If you go to various sites involving mythology and ancient cultures, there are MANY names of gods and goddesses that are very descriptive!!!

and my favourite Romeo
you spelled favorite wrong.
just wanted to let you know that.
That is the British way to spell it.
I like the name Duke 🙂
I like dutchess and Pegasus and spartan we are getting a horse next month
the very first horse I had was named Chief, large chestnut gelding, retired from barrel racing. The first horse I ever got had the name “Big Red” He was a thoroughbred pin fired off the track. I hated the name and decided on “Rowan” which means big, red, strong, and it is a red fruit bearing tree. He quickly learned this name and it suited him to a tee. From the get go I would yell his new name when he was out to pasture, each time he came to me he got a treat, he learned his name quickly. Best horse I ever had. My husband has a palomino and white Saddlebred with a beautiful blonde mane and tail. My husband asked me to name him, we call him “Trace” his show name is “Without a Trace”. He is actually named after the country singer Trace Adkins: big, tall, burly, blonde…….lol
I currently own a ranch and most of these names are often used.
But I was glad to see some names I have never seen before on a horse like, “Noir”
or “Passport”!
I have a total of 23 horses and I can briefly describe about 3 of them from the top of my head.
We have a small pinto named “Shimmer”. She has a beautiful white/cream coat with dark brown splotches on her pelt.
I also have twins ( not really, but they act like it )! They are both pretty black Arabians with a white mane and tail and both of them are broke-in. Their names are Plum & Vimmy. The only way to tell them apart, is that Plum has a white blaze and Vimmy does not.
Again, very lovely list!

my horse is named maggie put maggie on there and my sisters horses name is bramble
My favorite horse name of all time is Cadillac
I personally like names from books/movies such as the lord of the rings or star wars. Ex. Asfaloth, Strider, Skywalker, Okoye
In a video game I named my horse Skywalker even though I NEVER watch Star Wars. I also have a friend who named a horse figurine that.
these horse names are super, I really want a horse but can’t get one because I live in The city.
I like the name “Angel”
I used to have a retired Thoroughbred that the owner abandoned at a boarding farm, so the owners of the farm gave her to me and my husband. We didn’t know her name and her lip tattoo was badly faded, so we decided to name her “Angel” She was a great horse.
My horses name when we go him was something strange so the owners previous call him bozo so that just stuck
I love these names but I am an old TV show and book nerd. I like Rob and Laura for a pair (from the Dick Van Dyke show), Gilligan and Skipper (From Gilligan’s Island), Also Harry, Ginny, Ronald and Hermione. Mix ’em up anyway you want. Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Peter are good ones too! Tobias and Tris, from the Divergent series, Alex and Aaron from The Unwanteds, or Alex and Sky. Oh and Aaron and Kaylee. Alex and Aaron’s little sisters, Thisbe and Fifer. Katniss and Peeta are good. Or for two Females, try Katniss and Primrose. I am a big fan of “Fablehaven” so I would totally name any new horse pairs, Kendra and Seth, or Kendra and Bracken. I also love Les Miserables, so Cosette and Marius are perfect!
If you have any trouble coming up with the perfect name for your horse, pick the name of a character in a movie, book or TV show that matches your horse’s personality!
Amy, I love the idea, and do you did you read the book or did you watch the movies of the Chronicles of Narnia or did you do both?
OMGosh! I love the books so much! The movies are good too, my favorite Chronicles of Narnia film is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. #Horselovers
OMG, ME TOO! I have all the books and the movies and they are so cool.
I have 2 horses. My pony is named Princess. She thinks she is always the star of the show. My Black Lippizan is named Frank. He kinda has the his blaze kinda looks like a Hot Dog :). You could do names of like what kind of blaze the horse has. or if it has high socks on his feet, you could call him White Socks. (socks For a barn name)
Otherwize, Great names!!!
That’s really cool?❤️
Wow guys that is a lot of names cool.

FRANK & JESSE

I think horses are brilliant animals. They are one of the most common uses for therapy. I should know cuz I have three horses of myself Penny, sugar, and Patches. people should start treating horses with respect because horses get beat up sometimes because people just see them as animals with no feelings but really they are one of the deep down sweet gentle Giants.

hi, 123456789, the names that you picked out are all so cool!
These are great horse names, I hope you guys think about adding more because they’re so cute! I have an Arabian that I’m trying to name (he’s a toy, imagine how serious I would be if I had a real horse!) and I was going to go with Bolt or Cash, those seem to fit him. Hope anyone reading this has a wonderful day! Stay away from corona!

I had an Arabian mare for a couple of months and her name was Skylark. I personally love the name for a horse with a lot of spirit, but that also can be sweet.
These names you have put here are great! I personally like any name that does not sound something like what you would name a human, though sometimes it may sound nice depending on what the horse looks like. Stay safe!
I’m really interested in Greek/ Roman mythology right now, and I was thinking that something like Heracles/ Hercules, Theseus, Jason, Perseus, Achilles, Prometheus, Odysseus and Aeneas. And for a girl maybe Psyche, Amara, Aretha, Althea, Hela and Reina/ Reyna.

I think Kit kat is best for my horse ♥️♥️
I think – this is just a random note, though it maybe useful – that naming a horse after their character or looks, would probably be the thing that would suit them most
I love horse and am very sad because I can’t even imagine what it’s would be like to have a horse because I can’t afford a horse for me but I have 2 guinea Pigs and 3 baby guinea Pigs I have to take care of all by myself now but I’m still happy for them to.
