I’m only 19, thats why I don’t live on a horse farm with 60 horses yet! LOL! My 2 horses, who are now deceased, their names were Cocoa and Simon. I thought that both of those names are pretty common! Cocoa was my little 13.9 HH Crossbred pony (dark bay). Who I got for Christmas at the age of 10. Simon I got during the summer of that year. He was a flea bitten grey Arabian (15 HH). Both were geldings. Now I own a beautiful mare and a gelding. My gelding is a Dutch Warmblood, dark bay/stripe, 16 HH and is 6 years old. His name is Blitz. My mare’s name is Brooklyn. She is a black Thoroughbred mare with a star and stands proud and high at the height of 16.8 HH! I love all of my horses (past and present) no matter their names!

I called him Bronx. He was already registered so the name stayed. His sire was Pachars Manhattan so Bronx’s name fit in with the New York scene. What a sweetheart he was! He is gone now, but the memories he left and the hoof prints on my heart are numerous.

He was named by the breeder, and first owner. Most know the correct way to pronounce his name, except the lady we got him from. She pronounced in like Josie, as in “Outlaw Josie Wells.” I have a Standard Bred that was also named when we got him and saved his life from starvation. Of course that is a different conversation. His name was Bill when we got him. I too don’t like the normal names for any thing i get to name. I call him “Wild Bill” due to his very high spirit. I love it when he is in one of his “I wanna go” moods. Our time on horseback is cherished. We ride for hours and miles. Alot of the time, is spent in silence just listening to nature on trail rides, other times we talk so much we actually forget to keep an eye on the time and get caught by dark getting home. I know that was a little off topic, but I just felt like sharing a little bit of my love for horses and what they can bring to a relationship with a 13 year old daughter and her father… Love the articles like this one. Would love to read more articles concerning how relationships have been influenced by horses such as mine and my daughters.
