FOREWORD

As a horse crazy girl, I kept a list of all horse names that I found so I'd be able to choose the perfect name for my first horse. I never got a horse as a girl, so my list fell by the wayside. My husband gave me my first horse. I named her Ceylon because her eyes are light blue like the Ceylon sapphire my husband gave me.

Lots of horses and other animals have been a part of my life since. I try to find names to fit each animal. I choose a name because it's unusual, I like the sound of it, or it fits the animal's personality, behavior, habits, color, markings, ancestry or other traits that make them unusual.

Many years later, my horse names list has come full circle in the form of this book. I hope that you find many perfect names inside.
