>>My mare, Stella III, is in foal to Erlend for late April, 2000. Since this is our first, and this year the letter is "V" for foals, where do you find the names list for authentic Norwegian names for fillies & colts?>> I personally think that a good name for a colt is VARG, which means wolf in the Scandinavian languages. Another one is VESTLAND - the part of Norway where the cradle of the Fjordhorse stood. In the old days, I think that the name "Vestlandshest" was used more than "Fjordhest". VIKING is another suggestion, but perhaps it has been used a lot? I'll think about filly-names. Have to prepare a lecture right now.
