Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: If the horse is your property, you may name him/her anything you like. If the horse is registered, you may need a submit a form with the new name and change of ownership - ask the organization from which you adopted the horse for the procedure there.

Animals don't seem to recognize names as labels for themselves the way people do. For them, it just means someone wants their attention.
Try a name that doesn't sound like a common word the horse will hear often. Avoid overly "cute" names or names you wouldn't use in mixed company. Also, if you have some really long name in mind, that's OK for registration and "official" use, but pick a nickname of only 2 (or at most 3) syllables. Some horses' names I've encountered: Sundance, Mesa, Cheyenne, Shadow, Apollo, Frodo, Rio, Rebel, Windracer, Rambo, Lilly, and Custard.
