Unique names for a chestnut mare

[QUOTE=Appsolute;8107353]
I like the name Delilah for a strong mare[/QUOTE]

That’s what I went with for my chestnut mare :slight_smile: mainly bc shes a looker, and has a nice way to lure you in to her, but she’ll also jump on you so she can be a real biotch at times. I find it a very fitting name :slight_smile:

When a chestnut filly needed a name, we re-appropriate Rockin’ Ruby from a bucking mare in a midnight RFD sale.

Since the filly never got registered, when a chestnut colt came along needing a name a couple years later, he was christened Rockin’ Reuben. His is official. :slight_smile:

Go to a paint store and look at reddish colored paint names.

Looking for a name that’s a bit different for my new mare that I’m picking up in the next coupe of days. She is a 8 year old, chestnut stock horse. Her current name is ‘Jill’ but it doesn’t suit her. I want something unique or a bit different :)[/QUOTE]

Peggy Bundy.

Opps- Zombie thread. If the mare is still being called ‘Jill’ a year later, the name is there to stay.

I had a chestnut Saddlebred mare named “Copper Belle”

I named mine Zinfandel. I thought that was pretty clever :). But I’m slightly biased because I love wine.

We have a Fiona at my barn – it suits her. Our redheaded pony mare is Ruby Slippers

:lol:
Agreed!
For the poster who suggested Titian - while I think this is a classy choice, consider how announcers could mispronounce it.
“Titty-Ann” comes to mind… :rolleyes:

Junior I showed with named her horse Sophocles.
Very nice, very educated, but I heard them announced as “Sop Hockles” more than once.

I love “Ruby Slippers.” That is adorable!

Goose.

I used to ride a chestnut mare named Goose, no idea why but it fit her and everyone loved the name.

Autumn

Sunrise

No Regrets (Regret, the first filly to win the Kentucky Derby, was a chestnut)

I knew one named Sopa after the Mexican soup.

I had a filly named Flair/Flare, also.[/QUOTE]

I have a chestnut filly named Solar Flair.
