Inspired by Merry’s Hambola Virus, what nicknames do you give your horses that are a far cry from whatever their dignified and elegant real names are?
I’ll start.
Portia, a/k/a Pork, Porky, Porky Pie, Pork Butt, Countess Porcula [think Count Chocula], PQ, Portia Queen, and (of course) Her Highness.
Lucien, a/k/a Lu, Lu-Boy, Loopy Lu, Lu Lu, and (worst of all) Sweetums Baby Boy.
My mare’s registered name is Doc’s Pretty Sugar but she is known by the name “Snort” because when she was born the first thing she did is look around at the world and she snorted.
The name has stuck since then.
Willow Bay was many names: Willie, Will B, Wills, and Wildebeest (when we had “moments”).
Belclare is “Becky” and the only other name I’ve come up with for her are The Beckster and Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.
Robby
Our 3 year-old Hanoverian-Trakehner cross filly is just the cutest brown tubbo with a white face and a silver tail. But she has these lop ears and a big white face. That, coupled with her stereotypical “dumblood” attitude has earned her the title: The Hanoverian Cow Beast.
It fit her particularly well today, when she forgot she has two leads, a left AND a right one.

necessarily appropriate for the board, but when Mandarin’s prodigal son was born (at 3am) right after another mare had foaled the previous night, He had one ear that drooped.
Given that I was a bit punchy, he was named Drew P. Ear… His registered name is Mandate.
His ear came back up, but was bent back in utero…
I had a grey jumper with floppy ears—Guess what his name was???
Yup!!! he even showed under the name of Dumbo.
Gotta go get the picture.
Don’t get stuck in the sludge if you’re that confident in your ride!
Buddy Love - Buddilicious, Budder Cup, Bootty Call, Pickle 2 (my other horse was Pickle),
“Brown Dog”
He was supposed to go to the 1988 Olympics (a son of Diskus, won “everything”). Became too ornery and became “The Dog.”
Ended up in the adults hunters and bigeq (don’t they all?)

Okay, here’s two of mine - my old A/A horse’s barn name was Ricky but I dubbed him the name of Doody (seeing as how he had to poop every 15 minutes or so). And then there’s my current A/A horse who’s barn name is Bones (as in lazy bones 'cause he can ‘barely’ get to the ring in under 10 minutes even if it’s 100 feet away from his stall) but I’ve dubbed him Boney-head (bonehead) which he answers to by screaming as loud as he possibly can.
Well I now call him BUD, kind of dopey, but he is such a “bud”. He came to me with the barn name Wizard. EXCUSE ME, I can’t own a horse called “Wiz”. So I kept saying things like, come here bud, or you are such a good bud, as in buddy. And it stuck. I have come to the show name of “Life Is Good”. Now if we could get off the block and go show. 
Years ago had a gray TB mare, with a rather boney TB head and long ears. Commonly referred to as BONEHEAD, and aptly so. Also “Radar” when she would enter the show ring those ears would be “workin”.
“The older I get, the better I used to be.”
Tyke’s nicnames are pretty ‘normal’:
Tyke, Tykey, Tykey-pikey or wikey or bikey, Idiot, Dumbass, Sweetie, Jerk, Poohead, Pooface, Gluteous Maximus.
since most of you got dumped or stepped on or bitten.
I can’t believe no on else calls their horse “Alpo” or “Dog Chow”
