Well, Plum springs to mind! Victoria? (they're a dark plum...)
Take a look at a website with Dutch names (there's bound to be one somewhere!) or see what the Dutch is for Midnight, Black, Shadow etc...
How about Freya? Vanna?
Personally I prefer to use the 'real' name or a 'short' version of it, but then I was lucky with Amelia!

Is she with you in England now? I have found that horses (and cats and dogs too) will "tell" you their name after you have been with them for a while.
You just spend some time getting to know them and the name will pop in your mind. This is what happened with Nico, he was just a few hours old and I was walking in the field with him when the name just came into my head. It suits him very well.
Hope your girl doesn't turn out to be a "Bertha"!

| I like Plum best too. Reminds me of a horse in a old 'Jackie' book. Have a feeling that Plum was the perfect-pony which is all good. Now I really should be working, stop posting interesting stuff! |

I'm getting "Lila".
Or it could be my unborn filly (it's got to be a filly!) telling me her name...
Priya is nice too.

I'm another one that loves the name Plum! What about Damson or Damask (both plum relationed!)
Raven (Raaf in Dutch)
Obsidian (Bit of a mouthful!)
Fraai (Beautiful in Dutch ) |

I'm terrible with names, all the names I like seem to suit mini ponies but here goes: Fern, Mouse, Bella, Beauty (i.e. Black Beauty)
I like Freya that someone else suggested too |
