I have gone through list after list of names for my new (and first) horse. She is a 14.3hh 9 year old red dun tobiano APHA. Her registered name is Orange Crush Kitty, and was called Crush at her previous home. Definitely want to change it. She is so gorgeous and sweet! And she is such a pretty mover, as well as super smooth to ride. I already have two birds by names of Puck and Hermes, and a dog named Bella. So those names are out of the question. I love to read, and it would be great to name her after one of my favorite books. I shortened my list to the following, with the book they're from: Calla (Nightshade by Andrea Cremer) Effie (The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins) Amity (Divergent by Veronica Roth) Piper (Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan)Dove (Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater) Tessa "Tess" (The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare) I am really between Dove and Tess, though. The thing is, I've dreamed of having a horse named Dove for a long time (Don't ask me why). But the name is kind of weak. And Tessa is a much stronger name, and you can shorten it for a nickname. And, I already have a pet named after the Scorpio Races. But, for whatever reason, it's really hard for me to let go of the name Dove. Tessa has some Greek meaning to do with the number Four, which is kinda Divergent
