And so the shinequids continue with this boy. I think I get a bit better with the shine every time, I'm very happy with it. He is a classic ivory champagne with minimal overo markings.

Equid's Name (must have C): Círdan
Age: 6
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: As soon as I saw this stallion I knew I trusted him to be fitting of a Tolkien name, and when I thought of Círdan, it was perfect. I wanted to choose a name that had something to do with grey or silver, because this stallion has such a gorgeous shiny coat, and I'd already had my heart on Círdan when I did recall that he was described as having grey or silver hair. Círdan, meaning "shipwright" in Sindarin, was a Telerin elf from JRR Tolkien's The Silmarillion, he was one of the wisest and the oldest know elves, as well as a bearer of one of the elven rings of power, Narya, for a time. Círdan as well is the elf that welcomes them to the Grey Havens, which has a sentimental significance for me as that's the part I always get choked up during when I watch The Return of the King. His eyes are also described as being "keen as stars" and I think that's perfect considering the hue of this stallion's gorgeous eyes, like galaxies. Even just the sound of the name is beautiful, and it just fits perfectly.

I apologize for rambling on a bit, I managed to cut it down by a signifigant portion. Tolkien just really means a lot to me and is a big part of my childhood, so when I saw this stallion and thought of the name Círdan, I couldn't help but hope.

Equid's Name (must have C): Heracles
Age: 5 years
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: Greek Mythology is my favorite mythology of them all, and I have kept this name for the very few equids I consider "perfect" for the name. The stallion in question must look proud, noble, strong, and determined. When I think of Heracles, I can't help but think of the Disney movie Hercules, and at the end of the movie, Hercules is sent back to the world of the Gods, and he shines- which I think fits perfectly for a shimmery equid! So, seeing that this equid looks to be proud, noble, strong, and determined, along with being shiny as an added bonus, there is no better equid I could give this name to.

Equid's Name (must have C): Cooper
Age: 3 years
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: Actually, there are two reasons I pick that name. First is that I've always wanted to name some sort of animal that name because it seems like such a cute name and and really compliments the personality that I'm already imagining in my head. Second, it's the last name of my absolute best friend that I've known since Kindergarten, and I could definitely see him with the same personality as her, and he kinda looks like a male version of her! <3 If I win him, he will definitely have more of a personal bond with him.
*Sigh* I'm sorry for wasting space...instantly lost the click, and I want to save that name and personal connection for a really really special quid.

Equid's Name: Cobra
Age: 7 years.
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: I Call him Cobra Cause the moment I saw him I thought of King Cobras Such as in the links. His coloring is pretty much perfect and the shine makes me think of the sun on the scales, along with the fact the equids long tail would move like a snakes <3. You could say I'm probably some of the.. maybe rarer girls that love snakes lol. I also love them because of Steve Irwin. That is why I mostly remember and see This beautiful stally as one. I may even give him the personality of a cobra (viper like attitude.) Good luck all!

Equid's Name (must have C): Caelum, Cael
Age: 10
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: He reminded me of the moon but I didn't find any suiting names there. Then I thought of stars and found a little known constellation called Caelum. It fit him perfectly. Caelum is not the brightest or most complicated of constellations-it consists of four stars. Caelum translates to "the sulptor's chisel" which suits the personality I would give him. A leader that "sculpts" his heard into caring and compassionate quids.

Cael is also short for caelestis which means heavenly.

the heavenly chisel XD

Equid's Name (must have C): Duroc
Age: 3
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14hh
Reasoning: Duroc is a pig breed, known for their russet read color. Clearly that has nothing to do with this stallion. I just thought the short sweet name would fit him because fancy names give a different personality feel.
