The 12 Funniest Horse Names of All Time

There’s a wide spectrum of funny horse names, from silly puns to downright bizarre monikers. Whilst some of them may seem too funny to be true, we can assure you that they’re all real! We’ve scoured the web and gathered the most amusing horse names, which will make you wonder what their owners were thinking. Forget about the typical horse names like Treasure or Lucky Charms – these equines have taken funny names to a whole new level!

Neigh Sayer

Need we say a-neigh more? This particular chap wasn’t the most enthusiastic about entering water, and the rest is history!

Hay-Zeus

This name is a play on words, combining “hay” with the name of the Greek god Zeus, who is considered the ruler, protector, and father of all gods and humans.

National Debt

Another obvious name; this one’s justifiable for almost any horse, and would make a perfect brother to Second Mortgage. But let’s be realistic, whilst National Debt is befitting of many horses, each and everyone is a one in a million – and you can’t put a price on that (even if a name is necessary)!

Usain Colt

There’s a fair amount of wit involved with this one, and it’s origins are obvious.

Kate Wins-a-lot

I must confess, I have only heard of a horse going by this name through an acquaintance – I’m certainly not fortunate enough to name my horse anything like Kate Wins-a-lot, and Kate Comes-in-fifth doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.

Whykickamoocow

This fantastic name belonged to a racehorse. Who knows where this funny horse name came from, but it’s sure to have an interesting back story!

Mane Attraction

This name is a witty play on words that references both a horse’s mane and the phrase “main attraction”. Perfect for any attractive horse with a captivating personality!

Hemioneigh

This is practically irresistible for any bay mare. Just make sure your horse doesn’t learn about win gar dium levi ohhh sa – they probably don’t need a hand in throwing you off.

Made even more perfect if you already have a Hermioneigh in your stable!

Sylvester Stallione

You really need look no further than Sylvester Stallione. Encapsulating good looks, strength, and charm this one’s definitely an accolade.

Buckethead

This one’s straight up mean!

Notacatbutallama

If this one strikes you as odd, then you’re not alone Notacatbutallama (Not a cat, but a llama) is an 11-year-old gelding owned by Repole Stable. Although he started out his career as a racehorse, in retirement he’s taken to social media, and has amasseded several hundred followers.

Another racehorse. Although we daren’t speculate on the exact reason for naming the bay mare this, we imagine there’s a hearty story behind it! One thing’s for sure: it makes for great racing commentary.
