What are good names for a horse?

Hey, you got a new horse? Congratulations! What a big moment. You’ve finally accomplished your dream of getting a horse! Now you’re probably wondering, “What should I name my new baby?” Pew, finding good names for a horse can be such a daunting task. But worry not! I’m here to help!
First off, it needs to be short and catchy. Horses don’t speak English (or any other human language (as far as I know!)). In fact, they really can’t speak at all; they are whinny and neigh (which is still their version of speech). So, if you have a long and complicated name for your horse, it will make it harder to understand it, and it might make it harder to pronounce when the people who come to see him say it out loud. So, I recommend short and catchy names for horses so that everyone can know how to pronounce them correctly and easily!

The best way to get good ideas is to scroll down a list with awesome horse names – like the one I made for you down below!
