Why not just take the classic approach, and name him Shadowfax. You could also take the name Nahar (Orome's horse)

MLD-Grounds-Keeper-Willie · 02-02-2003, 04:35 PM

How about frostbite. Here are some others: ivory, snowflake (if you want to have it sound cute or something), pearl. That's all I can really think of from the info you've given.

Faithful servant yet master's bane,
Lightfoot's foal, swift Snowmane.

Snowmane's a good one. I like it!

Annúntindomeiel · 02-02-2003, 04:56 PM

Asfolath!!!

Vardamar · 02-02-2003, 05:46 PM

Just wondering why you are asking? Did you get a white horse? If so what breed is it? Can you tell us something about it?

Oh and by the way Snowmane is the all time best name for a white horse. Its just so god dong purty [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

luin'loki · 02-02-2003, 06:41 PM

Elvish names always sound beautiful on a horse.So why not name it something in Elvish?(Like I suggested earlier.)Or you could name it after Legolas's horse,since you like him so much,or something like that.And some more are...........

5.Aikanaro

6.Alata

7.Ankalima

8.Helkelimbe

9.Nim'loki

That's about it.

A very good name for a white horse indeed [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Love the little poem there...

Meela · 02-03-2003, 02:43 PM

If i had a white horse, i would use my name Haetathra

doug*platypus · 02-05-2003, 05:44 AM

Call him Whitey.

No, no! There's already been a hydrofoil called Shadowfax!

the guy who be short · 02-05-2003, 12:20 PM

how about ninque (white)?.
i think it sounds nice when spoken aloud (pronounced nincwe).
or vanya, fair/beautiful?
or even ninquevanya!
maybe ninquerocco (both o's as in pot), which means white horse?
vanyarocco, beautiful horse.
those are all in quenya by the way

luin'loki · 02-05-2003, 04:05 PM

I got one!its weird but...Bob.It's genius!I know it sounds stupid but I am not as I DID beat the super-intendent today!I asked him if he knew how 2 spell onomatipoeia which means to mock or something like that.And he didn't.

Proud, royal, strong, and white:

Ecthelion.

giddyup!

Gorwingel · 02-05-2003, 08:06 PM

Shadowfax would be great and Snowmane too (as many other people have already told you) I would so name my horse Shadowfax if I had one [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

doug*platypus · 02-05-2003, 08:40 PM

Onomatopoeia. And "to" is spelled with letters, not numbers. Maybe you shouldn't have mocked your superintendent. He never intended to be as super as you do.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 02-10-2003, 06:54 AM

Well you've clearly got to call it Shadowfax! But if you're wanting another suggestion, how about Icicle? Or Frostillicus?

Inderjit Sanghera · 02-10-2003, 02:49 PM

Or the One Ring. Or the cracks of doom. So many stupid suggestions...

Firondoiel · 02-14-2003, 04:43 PM

How about Arod? That was Legolas's horse. In the movie Arod was white.

Personally, I don't like copying names as much. I know this looks really bad because of my screen name, but I still don't like copying. So, even though, Shadowfax and Ecthelion are nice, I'd got for Snowmane. That was non-LOTR right?

Eressië Ailin · 02-15-2003, 11:28 AM

ummmm.... Actually, Snowmane was Theoden's horse... But I'd still go for Snowmane!

Quote:

onomatopoeia

\On`o*mat`o*p[oe]"ia\, n. [L., fr. Gr. ?; ?, ?, a name + ? to make.] (Philol.) The formation of words in imitation of sounds; a figure of speech in which the sound of a word is imitative of the sound of the thing which the word represents; as, the buzz of bees; the hiss of a goose; the crackle of fire.

Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, © 1996, 1998 MICRA, Inc.

If it is a male horse, "formen" means north (it is the name of a tengwar letter) and "silme" means starlight.

1. Mystic Jewel
2. Celestial Majesty

Horses often have long, strange names. Pick what you like, make it sound cool, and you've got a name for a horse.
