Need a show name as well as a barn name for my new mare…

Ok I admit, I need some help.
3 years ago I bought a little redhead weanling. Since then I have been collecting names. Finally I had so many that I was overwhelmed :pensive::pensive:.

So when she arrived at the barn I called her Supernova ( one of the names I collected and liked) but somehow Supernova is not a good barn name, and I usually call her little one…. I don’t want to call her Sissi ( some people recommended this) And I am still not sure whether I like Supernova for her. her sires name is Sezuan’s Donnerhall. And her registered name would have to start with a “S”

Thank you so much!!

And this is a picture of her…. That’s how she looks like…

Very pretty! Didn’t you move back to Germany? Do you want a German or English name?

Ooh, goody, I love naming!

If you decide you like Supernova, you could always shorten it to Nova for everyday.

Other ideas include
Sriracha
Sienna (overdone, I know)
Syrena
Samantha
Seraphina
Selah
Sacagawea

Thank you :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:. Doesn’t matter can be either German or English :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Nova or Novi are both excellent barn names IMHO.

You’re welcome! If I think of anything else, I’ll be back :laughing: Do you particularly want a one word name or phrases, too? The spice ideas were a spinoff of her sire’s name Sezuan being similar to Szechuan and her being a redhead.

There is a Ray Lamontange song called Supernova, about a woman named Zoie. It’s a catchy song (imo). I like Supernova! Her barn name doesn’t have to start with an S too, right?

Is the sire’s name pronouced like Cezanne or am I totally off base?

if it is could you do a play on words and name her after one if Paul Cezanne’s paintings, or French post impressionistic / avant garde vocab?

How about Camille, she was influenced by Cezanne, or Monet after Claude another French painter?

of course this only works if I am saying the sire’s full name correctly.

Since I started the thread I started to like the Name too!!! I probably overthink it…. And no the barn name does not have to start with a “s”

Thinking of horse names is a favorite activity- I’m horse-less and love to daydream. My old hunter showed under Break the Bank with registered name of It’s Only Money

I really like Shooting star :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:. Maybe she is going to be one :blush:… it’s funny, now I have three mares and all their names start with a “S”.

I like Supernova. :+1:

But I also like Sriracha and Salsa. Those names go well with flashy red horse.

Yet Splendid and Sincerely are wonderful, too. They evoke a pleasant, positive vibe.

Thank you for all your suggestions but I believe I will stick with Supernova and her barnname will be Zoey :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:. I think that is really perfect!!!

today I showed her to my trainer who is very picky. And she behaved amazing. Of course my trainer thought I should ride her more organized and start with circles but really she did not do one wrong step and is always doing everything I want her to. Sometimes I think I don’t deserve her. Such a friendly horse :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
