Show name ideas for Juliet?

We got in a rescue named Juliet that we have been working on. She was said to be an ottb but didn't have papers or a tattoo. The plan is to have her in the hunter/jumper ring at some point this summer. I'm at a loss for show name ideas. We would like to keep it in the theme of romance being her barn name is Juliet. Thanks!

Just my opinion, do with it what you want.

Most of the really good TB and QH names from the past were pretty simple. "Tonta Gal", "Poco Bueno", "Three Bars", "Gold Seeker", "King", "Driftwood".

The trend seems to be, especially in QH to try to cram in all the famous horses a person can fit on the registration papers. I understand why they do that, but I don't think those names are as classy, at least not to me. On the other hand the funniest show name I ever saw was "Whoa ****it", I still laugh out loud thinking about that horse being called.

One suggestion is to look at themes and places from where the story took place. The story mostly takes place in Northern Italy in a town called Verona. Now for the hard part, throwing a lot of spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks. "Girl from Verona", "Verona Wine"... I'm sure you'll come up with something good.

By the way, my Mare's barn name is Julieta. Good name

I got nothing from Romeo and Juliet but how about something like...

True loves Kiss?

First off, congrats. She is super cute. :)
I'm not the best with these, but here's a few I thought of to keep the romance alive:

Sealed With A Kiss?
She's A Goddess?
Goddess of Love?
Love Actually?

I tried. :lol:

You could get a lot of really great names directly from the lines of the play. Here's a few that come to mind, all pulled from the script:

Violent Delights
With a Kiss
Such Sweet Sorrow
Swear by the Moon
A Tender Kiss
A Righteous Kiss
Good Pilgrim
Trespass Sweetly
Beautiful Tyrant
Fair Verona
Love is a Smoke
The Face of Heaven
By Any Other Name
That Which We Call a Rose
Cupid's Wings
Love's Heavy Burden

Or you could do something simple with Juliet's family name, like The Lady Capulet.

Yeah, that one pops. One thing I like about it is that it sounds like it really could be a race horse's name ('and it's Fair Verona holding third on the inside . . .", while at the same time being romantic and fitting with her stable name.
