Here are the finalists (listed alphabetically) for the Best Named Three-Year Old. You can only vote for one entry, but, just to keep things interesting, I've set up the poll so that you can change your vote.
Barring ties: 1st Place wins 5K GPs, 2nd Place wins 4K GPs, 3rd Place withs 3K GPs and 4th and 5th Place each win 1K GPs.
For easy reference, I've cut and pasted the original comments below. Everyone is very welcome to post here giving links, cheering an entry or just kibitzing.

Angles Gother out of Angels Gather.
This is pretty much the stupidest pun I have ever come up with and every time I see the name I delight in how incredibly retarded it is. The Angles and the Goths were Germanic tribes in old Europe. The Angles (among others) settled England, thus the name of the country, and the Goths (among others) sacked Rome.
Ehehehehe Angles Gother
