Makes his barn name a no brainer.
It seems like everyone is laughing about “Howard” recently.:lol:
I think my all time favorite name was Ruffian.
We had a very precocious filly we named “Go”. I liked that.

Badlybentnotbroke. Not one of mine, nor a horse I ever knew. But I saw that name in an old pedigree at some point, and it has stuck with me for decades. There must be a story behind it.

Black Tie Affair comes to mind.
Upset was very aptly named.
NancyM; That is rather unforgettable. It makes one wonder if the horse was a wild one to back, or if it had crooked legs.
How about PistNBroke
Also noticed a Always B Miki yearling someone called Texas Miki

I always thought Twilight Tear was a lovely name for a mare.

Well, knowing the breeder, it doesn’t refer to a broken motor part

Bodacious Tatas. Amazing that it was approved, and of course she ended up being a decent mare, G2 winner. I’m sure the Jockey Club was mortified. :lol:

First one I thought of; just love that name (and the Darby Dan/Phillips people).
Not a racehorse, but the horse facility at US Davis used to stand a QH named Beats Workin. I thought that was a great name for a breeding stallion.

Flat Fleet Feet. I always suspected that the was bought by a consortium of race callers and retired…

And along those lines…
A favorite name just because of the family legend it created…
My mom was at the races with me many, many years ago and had been having a fun afternoon perusing the program, picking her horses based on scientific handicapping (it has a white heart on its forehead), getting a few dollars here and there and sipping a beer… when she suddenly snorted as she was reading the program for the upcoming races. “How awful!” she said. “this poor horse has such a stupid name - I may have to bet on him just because of it! Who would name a horse NINNY-POON-DAMMER!!!”
I looked at the program and saw no such horse. Puzzled, I asked her what PP number and what race… and I found this poor equine.
Ninepoundhammer.
One day, I want to race a TB named Ninny Poondammer.

😂😂😂 If it was a STB I’d think it was a relative of Freaky Feet Pete.
One name I always liked was a STB mare named Dirt Track Momma. Pretty gritty mare.
