Name ideas for a Leopard Appaloosa gelding

I need name ideas for a registered name for my chestnut leopard Appaloosa gelding, something that I can use in the show ring too.

Here are some things about him to help with a name idea:
-Hates other horses, love to ride away from other horses alone. Works best alone.
-Has the mind and attitude of a stud (he was gelded when he was 9yrs old).
-Loves to jump, and shows at national rated hunter jumping shows and is successful.
-Very expressive, if he hates you, he will show it.
-Freaks out when other people try to ride him.
-Loves to be center of attention when it comes to cameras (photos, videos, etc.)
-Willing to please for me, he is bombproof to literally anything. Not spooky whatsoever.
-He thinks he is better than everyone.
-He is amazing at liberty riding and training, bows, rears, lays down, kisses, and I can ride him completely tackless.

Here are some pictures of him so you know what you are dealing with!

Also I would like to add: there can´t be any numbers, special characters, periods, etc. and it needs to be no more than 20 characters! :)

Also, Spot The Difference was a name that was already on my list! I just need 4 more for the application.

We've got a leopard appaloosa that already came with a registered name and barn name but if he didn't I though about See Spot Run. After having him a little while See Spot Buck might be more appropriate. We've got that issue mostly solved so now I think of him as Bad Penny. He's a real in your pocket horse and always at the gate for attention or in the middle of whatever is going on. I'm sure the rest of the herd thinks of him as a bad penny too. Good luck, he's a beautiful horse.

@RMH thank you! I figured he was already registered even though his previous owner never gave us his papers. I called the ApHC and they said he wasn´t in their database. My horse was kept as a stallion until he was 9yrs old and for a leopard Appaloosa stud, you would think someone would have registered him. Since I found out he isn´t registered, and he is now a gelding, I am going to hardship register him. I might try a DNA test kit and then have the ApHC compare it to horses they have to be sure he isn´t registered.

I like Sir Spots a Lot (!), Appsaloot Choctaw, Join the Dots, Spottacular, and Spot the Dots. I haven't thought of any, myself, though - naming isn't one of my strengths! :lol:
