Now, before starting with the names, let’s quickly jump to a few basic answers. Our aim is to provide you with a handful of guidelines that surely will assist you in your whole procedure. Without further ado let’s go!
Why Are Names Needed? (Necessity of a Good Name)
‘Why should I put my feet in all this hassle?”, “Why can’t I just call my stallion as Mr. Horse?” , “Why do I even need to name him?”, some of these questions will definitely cross your sceptic mind, and we understand, when there are so many choices around, we tend to get indecisive. Doubts like “am I even giving the right name” arise and you might not want to put yourself through a period of confusion, so you decide to either not name or choose a basic one. We’ll tell you the pros of choosing an apt name alongside the cons of not taking enough care of it all at the same. Hold on? Take a deep breath, and let’s go.
- Names are connectors:- Think about it, why do you need a name? What would happen if we all had the same identity? We at our origin are ‘homo sapiens, just like horses are horses? Yup. But what if there were no other sense of identification than this. The language would never have evolved. Names are required in order to find a sense of identity and they help to connect the dots to further training. You introducing your pet to a name is you introducing a whole new set of accents to them i.e the human accent. Though they are animals and cannot comprehend the alphabet the way we do, they definitely will learn to lead through a pattern of sounds. This helps them attain confidence for further training.
- Hike in Enthusiasm:- The better and happier the names, the better learner they become. How so? In an experiment, Dr. Rudolf ( a famous vet ) found that good names induce a sense of happy hormones in your pet. They might not pick up the meaning of names, but animals are surely known to best understand the vibe connected with it.
- Receptivity mechanism:- Animal mind picks up a certain sound pattern, calling them by names over and again, helps them recognize and respond easily. You’ll notice it in the early days of training that when they first learn to associate with their names, they’ll respond three times faster on an average than before. Naming your pet helps them comprehend and thus react better.
Why’s should be known prior to how’s they say. Before we jump into “How to name your black horse” and “what stuff to keep in mind”, let’s dive into the “Hero” of our Subject, yup you got it right. We are talking about the Name Suggestions.
- Positive Association:- Ideally, your horse thinks that its own identity is the best thing ever. Horses are known for their keen observation, speed, and love for independence. A name helps all these qualities gain a quick momentum. They get excited and motivated on hearing their own name. That’s actually so simple yet powerful, isn’t it? On the downside of it, if they don’t know their names they’ll replace it with another commonly used word, and if the word is negative they’ll convincingly give in to the negative emotions attached with it.

How To Name Your Black Horse
There we go, we are sure you’ll find something or the other for your Alpha kids, from our suggestion list.
Let’s quickly get back to some more information about “How should you name your Horse?” and what to keep in mind while doing that.
- Breed Heritage:- Need inspiration for your horse name, search for their breeds, a Friesian Horse’s pet name can be crafted out of its breed name only, let’s say for an illustration, it can be called “Frey”, or “Frien”, it you literally cannot decide what name to opt out of plenty available, but you also want to be creative enough, this is the best way to go. Search for the breed and carve a name out of it.
- Reliable Recall:- As the word suggests, choose a name that’s reliable to recall. Now it doesn’t have to be an easy, common name that you can easily remember. It has to feel connected. A synchronised pattern should be followed by both you and your pet. Choose a name that not only you can recall easily but also your pet is encouraged to learn. This way, you can literally reap all the benefits of naming your pet. We have already described in the first half of the article, how strong connectors names actually are.
- Enhanced Traits:- A name that matches either physical or psychological traits of your horse, is said to be the best, the reason being that the more your pet connects to his name the more stronger he’ll feel that trait inside him. Remember, for example, if your pet is master of speed, a name like ‘Storm’ or ‘Ace’ would do justice. If your pet has an undeniably accurate sense of serendipity naming him or her ‘Grace’ or ‘charm’ works the best. Even if you cannot find any prominent inner trait, you can always refer to outer appearance for references. Make sure, you don’t comprehend any negative quality while choosing this process. You don’t want to incorporate a negative sense of being in your pets.
- Receptive Communication:- Animals clearly don’t understand the language the way we do, like a toddler child, just learning alphabets, they pick up on sounds. The sound of everything. Slowly and steadily they learn to relate the sound with a feeling or a trait. Giving them their own names, open the doors of a speedy training. All the words they hear in a random assortment become more resorted to them because they get used to hearing one sound ( their names). Receptivity is key here. Giving your animal a name that increases their receptivity and consistently using it makes them curious to learn more such words.
- Take Pop Culture References:- Recently a trend of naming your pet after pop culture stars has started, one major advantage of this would be the amount of times they’d hear it. In random conversations, on a show that you’re watching on the screen, it’s pretty obvious that the more you make them hear their name, the faster they adapt to it. This trend speeds up that adaptation process.
- Take it Easy:- The most important thing in it all is do not pressure or burden yourself under ‘Perfectionism’, no your pet doesn’t have to have the most unique, different, ‘never heard before ever’ kind of name. It’s okay if you choose a basic name that you like the most but people just tell you is not Good enough. It’s your call. Go easy, also if your pet is not picking up to their name even after a hundred tries, it’s also necessary to take a flexible approach and discover more names. Take it easy, be flexible and keep experimenting.
Still not decisive about the kind of name your black horse should have? Introducing some more options for you.
