Sooo, I am finally living out the dreams of my 8 year old self and got my first horse. I decided to do a long term free lease before actually buying to decide how much I want to financially commit to this, and I’m super excited.
She’s a 16h bay TB mare, and her name is Neshama (knee-shah-ma). I like her name a lot but its a mouthful so I’m trying to come up with something short and cute to call her by when not using her full name. Her name is Hebrew for essentially “soul” or “spirit”, and according to various answers around the web it’s used as a pet name like calling somebody “darling”. The term “Neshama sheli” is like calling somebody “my soul” as in “you are important to my soul”. Super cute right!?
So far I’ve just been calling her her full name or shortening it to Neesh. If I’m going to call her something else I either want it to be derived from “Neshama” or have a similar meaning of “soul/spirit” or something shorter that is also Hebrew. However I’m open to really any suggestions!!
