Name the New . . . COLT!

Jewels foaled last night (June 26, 2026) and gave us a beautiful . . . COLT. We are laughing with embarrassment because the “nail” trick did not prove true, after all. It was accurate every time, and I admit, even I saw it go ’round and ’round last spring and assured myself that she would have another filly.

We all look pretty dumb right about now, but we couldn’t be happier! I didn’t think Jewels could outdo herself after Trissy (last year) and of course Taffy, but she did! He needs a name, and we’ll get to that in a bit, but first, his coloring.

Kristel immediately got on the fancy APHA site/FB and asked which of these DNA coloring “No Name” is. Hands down . . . a PALOMINO SPLASH. I see 17% of you guessed this, and you are right. It’s the huge blaze on his face, the tiny “splash” on his side, and his one knee-length white stocking that gave it away. He’s darker than Taffy was (so far), and his eyelashes are golden, so a palomino for sure, and what a beauty! A gallery is below, plus his first video (only a few minutes old) and then the link to help us choose a name! So, keep scrolling!

Here is your chance to offer Kristel names for this sweet new colt. The winning name will receive a $10 gift card to anything on the Circle C WebStore, digital products (includes audiobooks). The only rule is the last part of his name must be MOON (like Kody: Royale Dakota Moon and Knightly: Regal Knight Moon).

Here is the Google Form where you can enter your name for the new filly. We look forward to some fun names, and thank you!

Kristel wants to choose a name soon, so the contest ends Tuesday at 5 pacific time.

If the Google Form doesn’t show up on your device, here is the link: Name the Colt

  2. I suggested a name, but didn’t put my real one.
    He is adorable!! I am obsessed

  3. Really cute!! So, the name has to be with moon? No specific place? Sorry if that seems like a dumb question!!

    1. Moon is part of the sires name so that’s why she wants the moon as the last part of her colt’s name, but the first two names can be anything you want. That’s the whole point of having you guys submit names
