I'm a LOST fan, and this horse was named after one of the episodes...the one about Richard Alpert who never aged, and the episode explained why that was so. I had a Lost, mare that I bred to Ad Infinitum...and it resulted in a a colt that got a wings gallop comment.
Ab Aeterno -- Ad Infinitum X Clever Girl, by Lost.

Ad Infinitum - is a Latin phrase meaning to infinity or having no end.
Ab Aeterno - means from the beginning of time, or a very long time ago.

I named
Conando right around the time that Conan O'Brien was about to be done with the Tonight Show this past spring. It was a time when he was doing some of his best work in my opinion

Cottonwood Whisper
Named for the song "Song of Wyoming" by Chris LeDoux. Wyoming is my favorite place on Earth, and where I have a lot of wonderful memories. (This filly's half brother is Wind In The Sage, also named for the song.)
"Down in the canyon, the cottonwood whispers
A song of Wyoming for me."
