I have Eisor Zigzak - shortened to Zak (obviously).
Summerhill Gremlin(WB) - the only bay in the village. I have all but given up hope of ever having the bay Arab I originally set out to buy all those years ago - I came home with a chestnut
and Eisor Zhaazeer who gets either Shorty 'cos when he arrived here at 6 months old he could hardly see over the stable door or Bubble 'cos it rhymes with Trubble. |

"Ghibli" is the name of a desert wind, like Scirocco 
Roupert is known as Squid or Squiddly Diddly - from Our Kid (as there isn't a lot you can do with Roupert as a name!)
And we also have Bagger (Marimbah, misprinted in H&H as MarimbaG) and his son Bugger (short for Buggerlugs!)

Sunny is known by everyone on the yard as The Ginger Ninja, suits him perfectly! A lady once called down visiting & was given the guided tour of all the horses by my friends 5yo grandson. They went for horse to horse whilst the small person introduced everyone by name. When they got to Sunnys stable she looked at his nameplate & said "Ah so this must be Sunny?" Small person rolled his eyes tutted & said "Nooo thats The Ginger Ninja!" Poor woman looked awfully confused as we all fell about laughing
YO used to call Honey The Demented Prawn...again a very apt & endearing nickname  |

We have 'cider' who gets called cid, ciddy, piddy or poof when he is being really silly. Then we have 'solitaire' who gets called rasta as he has amazing long dreadlocks or monster munch as he is quite naughty. Then 'Africa' who gets called bird as she is a real Essex Bird! Then 'Ozzy' who gets called osmond, oswold or just plain wold....!
Where do we get these silly names from...? |

we used to call gizzy allsorts, but her main ones were wizzy gizzy, or the indestructable destructable horse She plowed through everything and always came out unharmed with what ever was in her way completely destroyed!! Our first horse honey was named invermist and we named our stud name after her. we used to have a pony called leaps and bounds, we named a tbxid Bramble after the weed lol. We also had an anglo arab called millie meyhem suited her perfect and a chestnut mare sondas flaming feather, sondas as her sire was cr sondas fire by sondas jabask, and she had feathering up her forearms and the further to the hoof the lighter and more golden the chestnut was and reminded you of fire. |

My girl Theeda is named after 1920's movie star Theda Bara. Nick named Theeda Bar or Little Red Thing because she was a surviving twin.
Then there's Milagro who gets nick named Nellie or Blunder Woman, you need to know her to understand why ;)
Sibelius ( named after a Finnish composer?) gets a variety of names shouted at him some of them are Sibby & Soufie.
