Re: Horse Name Generator
I'm currently learning Bosnian and have taken to giving my homebreds Balkanized versions of existing English names...
Amongst my best homebreds so far have been
Albertina Trka (Alberta's Run) Pernata Dama (Feathard Lady) Noćna Ptica (Oiseau De Nuit) Monetov Vrt (Monet's Garden) Prvi Poručnik (First Lieutenant) Prečišćavanje (Refinement) Pahuljasti Golub (Flakey Dove) Carski Zapovjednik (Imperial Commander)
Although not all horses follow the paths of their namesakes, Albertina Trka didn't take to chasing but wound up winning two Champion Hurdles whilst Pahuljasti Golub has just had the most promising novice chase campaign I've had in a while. It would be cool if I was able to use funny letters in the game (šđčćž) but the game's brilliant enough as it is.
As for the homebreds I decide not to keep, I call them Horse followed by the order in which I sent them to be lovingly re-homed with other trainers. Whilst somewhat Orwellian, it does make it much easier to keep track of the ex-inmates as well as saving the hassle of naming horses you're not going to keep. Indeed, I was quite pleased then I saw that Horse Twenty Four managed to win a Stayers Hurdle.

Re: Horse Name Generator
Come across this one before, it takes an age for a decent name to come up to be honest.

Re: Horse Name Generator
This site is pretty good for naming https://www.registry.jockeyclub.com/reg ... N=71049260For example let's take the letter S, we get names such as: Sabha Sacrament Siendai Spirit of Life Spiritually Supervelous Sweet Honor Synonym Systematic Szatan And these are just random ones I saw, obviously there are some that are rather horrible but you can find some real gems here

Re: Horse Name Generator
These look a lot better on first inspection (which is also a good name for a horse).
