Anyone reserve any good names lately?

I have a few on hand for future prospects, but if I were to narrow down some I'm most excited for... patiently waiting for the day I breed a freak bloomer/breeding shed colt, name him Rex. Ideally sired by Maximus, if I may be picky. Hallelujah and Iconic are high on the list as well. Mewsical (what I call it when my cat starts serenading me for her dinner) is on hand for when the right pedigree with the fast legs shows up.

And, before Dense Fog ended up as Dense Fog, he was very nearly named The Wizard of Aws because I'm weak for a terrible pun. So that's also parked for year 97 when I breed another decent AWS colt.
