Sometimes, when naming a horse, you just need to have a little humor. Coming up with a funny horse name can be as simple as a play on words or even combining two rhyming words in a funny way. These names are great to use both as barn names and as show names for your horse. The one thing all of these horse names have in common? They are funny!
Now, keep in mind that everybody’s sense of humor is different. Once you narrow down your list to a few names that you like, be sure to see what your friends and trainer think before sending in any paperwork.
