Colt Name Suggestions?

[Roguelet]

Those of you who know me know that I will be doing this online at 11:59 PM on February 1st, but just for the heck of it, I thought I'd make an attempt to begin the process early this year. I only have 2 left who need names before the deadline; both colts:

#1:
Sire: Colonel Bradley
Dam: Fancy Reality
This is a TANK of a horse. Not overly tall, but just solid and stout. Dark bay. Easy going, calm, sort of a "bubba" type.
Barn name: Puncher


#2:
Sire: Indy Mood
Dam: McGuerty Creek
This is a more refined and elegant looking colt. Ligher bay, mare's first foal. He's a bit more "alert" although not stupid at all.
Barn name: Doesn't really have one... just "Gertie's colt"


We like plays on names, we like mythology references, or anything that just really "fits." Pictures are old, from the summer, but it's what I have on hand. Anyone have any ideas?

1) Brad to Reality, you might be able to get away with Antaeus, who in greek mythology was one of the many sons of Gaia, he was huge (like your boy) and would challenge gods to wresting matches and was unbeatable because everytime you threw him back to earth he got stronger.

you'd have to tell me more about the 2nd one.

Proper Colonel for the first one.. maybe Orpheus Too for the other .. Orpheus is taken so you have to add a word.

1. Colonel Fancy

2. Moody McGuerty

[tammysinnett]

for the first one I would call him Four Stars......in the Army highrank for a COL would be four star Col...or if you stay at a fancy place you may look for a four star hotel?? Or Four Star Colonel ?? And the other boy maybe Indy Creek or maybe Blue By You, or Moody Blue?? just silly suggestions..

For the first one:
either Punch Of Reality or Reality Punch
I will keep thinking on the second one...

Colonel Fancy Pants....I never said they were BRILLANT names!! lol

Tank Puncher?

For either of the boys here are some names i liked, keep in mind I am looking at mythological names as you said that was your preference,
CERBERUS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Greek Mythology (Latinized)
Pronounced: SUR-bu-rus (English)
Latinized form of the Greek Κερβερος (Kerberos), which possibly meant "demon of the pit". In Greek myth this was the name of the three-headed dog that guarded the entrance to Hades. ( IT would definetly strike fear into his runningmates!) or
DARDANOS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Greek Mythology
Other Scripts: Δαρδανος (Ancient Greek)
Possibly from Greek δαρδαπτω (dardapto) "to devour". In Greek mythology Dardanos was a son of Zeus and Electra. He was the founder of the city of Dardania in Asia Minor.

#2:
