Name Shame ? - Galloping Grocer (and other crazy monikers)

The most revolting name for a thoroughbred I've heard this year is SUGAR BOOGER.
One of the best names I've ever seen was for our trainer's homebred filly, by Tricky Mister, from Bates Gal (Bates Motel): MOTEL TRICKS.
Still can't figure out how they got it past the JKC.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that a name we submitted a few days ago for our yearling filly will get approved.
Unbridled Jet, ex. Cozzy Rhythm: MILE HIGH CLUB.

That one won't get by. We tried it last year and it came back rejected as it is "offensive". Good luck though. Maybe you'll get them on a better day.

The JC is so arbitrary sometimes... I mean if they let through Blowhard and Blow Hole, well pot meet kettle when there's something of yours they find offensive..
Try Mile High Times...it's a play on words and takes it up a notch in the naughty department without their necessarily catching it... mile high club + high times as in the you know what magazine.... Unbridled Rhythm, Unbridled High, Unbridled Show, Unbridled Dance and Unbridled Jazz are actually not taken. Rhythm Method might also be amusing though might be kicked out. Invisible Jet gets you a Wonder Woman reference and the jet in there. Bicoastal Baby, Play Me Off, For Her Pleasure, Jetted, Girl in Every Port, Bombshell Blues, Cozzy Cockpit, Miles Above, Sexy Stewardess.. I'm riffing.. if you get yours great but I'm here if you want any more...those last ones are me being a bit silly but hey, I figure you started it with Mile High Club. They've allowed names with the word 'sexy' in there so one of those might make it.

Thanks, Heidi. Some fun suggestions in there! Mile High Times is great.
Unbridled Rhythm has been on my list since the first foal, too. This yearling is a big, strong baby, so she needs a moniker that fits her size and scope. We have a long list of possibilities, so we'll work our way down and see what gets through.

Gotta give some credit to Caesar Kimmel, who had a real talent for this...don't know if any of these came up but here are a few he had:
Flat Fleet Feet (solely to mess with the track announcers though not a bad horse)
Peony's Envy
Short Hair
Honor an Offer
I'm a Hellraiser
And the most ridiculous of all, a filly out of Nite of Fun... I Love The Organ
My dad was partners with Caesar (his initials made up the "ran" in Kimran stables) for years so you can blame us for letting him get away with some of his names. Most of these weren't with us but he had others too.

I recently came across a clever name that I was surprised hadn't been immediately rejected as patently offensive.
The sire was Housebuster, the dam was Honest And True. Their filly was named Polly Adler.
Polly Adler was a notorious whorehouse madam who wrote a book titled "A House Is Not A Home".

Obviously "offensive" is in the nose of the beholder!
