Hello! Hope you are enjoying your new horse!
What colour and size is she? This may help when choosing a show name.
What are you doing with her at the mo? Are you jumping her or just doing flatwork? For jumping you might want to use tendon and fetlock boots but I just use normal boots. I like the Protective Exercise Boots from New Equine Wear. If the horse brushes then you should use brushing boots to protect from injury, and if your going on the roads then knee boots are a good idea in case she goes down on her knees. Sports Medicine boots offer excellent protection but are expensive.
Hope this helps and good luck with your new pony!
Fiona.

What about just "My Lil' Misfit"? I think that would be a cute show name, and it obviously fits her barn name!
Good Luck,
Maci :)

Unless there is a problem with brushing or injury don't use them. Nervous horses can be made upset by them and they can cause worse injury from rubbing than no boot at all.

Well "Misfit" sounds fine to me but if you feel you need to change it how about "Miss" so that (if they understand human sounds at all) she still recognises that you're talking to her.

Rudolph the red nose reindeer's movie: Has a song about a "Misfit": Maybe there is something in the song that could help make her show name interesting: Or tricky but always brings it back to misfit:
For example: A lady I knew was a photographer so she wanted her horses show name to do something with it: So she named her horse "Say Cheese!" Which I thought was pretty cute!
What you could also do(Providing that you know your horses sire and dam) you could mix the two names to make a interesting name!
Example: A lady at my barns horse True had a baby and the sire's name was Rula so she just sqaushed them togeather to get
Truerula! And I thought that sounded kinda cute! I did something similar with my horse too! I took a name from her pedigree and just played with it! That always looks really neat a pedigree when the names are brought down and you can see the similarites: for example again
In the pedigree there was a snowbird, then later a snowcloud then later a snow court (which was by Kings Bench and Snow cloud to get that one!) then Snow Mount! So you can drag a word or name thru the pedigree to make it interesting!
Sorry now I'm just dragging this on!! Sorry!
I hope you find an interesting fun name!!!:D
