Are these names free to use?

Yes. Every name is generated from a static list with no attribution required, so you can use any name for your own horse.

Can I get names for a specific gender?

Yes. Select mare, stallion, or gelding, and the results are filtered to names tagged as a good fit for that gender.

What is the difference between the racing and western styles?

Racing leans toward bold, fast-sounding names common on the track, such as Thunderbolt or Velocity. Western leans toward ranch and cowboy names, such as Dusty or Cheyenne.

What if no names match my filters?

A limited pool of names is tagged for each style and gender combination, so an unusual combination can come up empty. Try widening the gender filter back to Any and generate again.

Does this generator store or send my choices anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing is saved or sent to a server.
