What's In A Name?

Just a more fun note after yesterday's downer.

I chose the Dalakhani x Balaabel colt to include in my 2006 crop. The horse's name keeps changing! I think he is owned by Hamdan Al Maktoum, as they are all his kind of names plus he is Shadwell-bred.

At first when I put him in my stable he was called Nethaam. Nice enough name I thought and a well-bred colt. Next he was suddenly called Mathaal (or something along those lines). Then he was back to being named Nethaam. And shock, horror, he's got a new name again!

He is now named.... drumroll please.... Masdar. I like it, let's just hope he keeps it this time!

That just amused me :o) I wonder what reason they have to keep changing the colt's name. He will end up with multiple personality disorder if they continue like that!
