Blog Hop: A Rose

 

     

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
Every horse seems to have at least three names:  the "real" one, the barn one, and that special one.  What are some of your pony's names?
 
I was excited about the theme of this blog hop when I read it. I love naming things, so yay! 
 
I will name just about anything. Its bad. I named my scientific calculator Cassidy. (I'm a bit of a math geek.) I have a Tardis from Doctor Who and a teddy bear on my key chain. Therefor I named the bear Lucinda the Time Traveling Teddy Bear. Like I said, its bad...

So of course I loved the idea of a blog hop about names. Cause I certainly have a tendency to call my horses a lot of different things.

Lets start with Mya. She doesn't have a show name because I've never shown her and she's not registered or anything that I know of. So we'll just start with her barn name, Mya. And then there's the nicknames. Pony, because she is big. Beastie, when I ride her because she is crazy. Myer and Oh Me Oh Mya. I also gave her a middle name. Eureka. Cause you know, I found her.

Then there's Lady. I actually changed her name when I got her. It was Penny. At the time I didn't particularly like it, but now that I think about it she does have the coat of a copper penny. So I get it. But I changed it to Lady just the same. We considered calling her Lucy, but the majority liked Lady better. So then I said we could make Lucy her middle name. It ended up that it was just shortened to Lou. And thus we have Lady Lou. More often than not, I just call her Lou Lou now. (I'm sure she lovesss the name.) I also refer to her as Ladybug from time to time.

Beastie and Lou Lou. :D
 
Collectively, I refer to them as "the ponies".
