ok guys, i need some help naming my new horse, he;s a bay roan, with two hind socks, and a small sar on his forehead.
I want a native american name, but it has to have a meaning.

I really want a Hermes, but not a new one. I prefer a saddle with a plain flap and no blocks/rolls/etc. A plain flap saddle really forces you to find your leg position on your own and allows you to feel the horse better. I don't like how saddles with knee rolls and blocks try to hold your leg in place, but to each their own. I used to have a saddle with knee rolls, but I'm selling it.
I am having a hard time finding another saddle, though! I'm 5'10 and fit into a 16" seat, but I have to ride in saddles with a 17" seat so the flaps fit my long legs. xD But at least the extra room in a close contact saddle isn't as noticeable as in an All Purpose.

I like to be able to feel my horse. It drives me mad when I can't. I have rode in a saddle that had knee rolls and everyone, but I could still feel the horse under me quite well. One if my old trainers said she would always rather ride in a too big saddle then too small.
Favorite breeds are: Anything Warmblood and TBs. But all horses have a spot in my heart.
