Best Named Horse Voting Poll - anything
Posted: Fri Sep 10, 2010 3:45 pm
Great entries, everyone, competition is tough! Good luck to all.
GP prizes will be awarded to the top three vote getters. In the absence of ties, there will be awards of 3GP's 2GP's and 1GP, respectively. The top two entries (or so, again depending on ties) will go on to a compete in a final contest for all categories.
For easy reference, I've cut and pasted the original comments below, but lost most of the embedded links (sorry). Everyone is very welcome to post here giving links, cheering an entry or just kibitzing.

This name resulted when for the umpth-teen time I've got pickles on my hamburger when I requested 'no pickles'. I keep thinking I should put a suggested threat on the end of my requests from now on.

The inkblot test, or perhaps a paint blot test... oh i'm so clever. not to mention you could probably use a paint to do a rorschach test

In my never ending search for names not already taken I came up with this funny one Nkechi Kwame.
While looking for other words for spirit/god I found the African word Nkechi which means "of god" or "of the spirit" and Kwame which means "born on a Saturday". The horse was bred on 11-21-2009 and the parents are Eagle Spirit x Brilliant Colors so the name Nkechi Kwame was a perfect fit.

I nominate Y Are U On Fire, just because his name cracks me up.

Roots Rock Rebel a tribute to both Bob Marley and The Clash, can't get cooler than that....
