Let's get something going in the westers thread.

What did our western heroes name their horses. Louie Lamour said in reality "western men never named anything they might eventually have to eat". LOL

The obvious ones are:

Lone Ranger and Silver
Tonto and Scout
Cisco Kid and Diablo
Pancho and Loco
Roy Rogers and Trigger
Gene Autry and Champion

I could name more, but let's have others participate.

On Bonanza:

Little Joe rode Cochise, a Pinto. Hoss rode Club, a bigger horse, dark brown, half thoroughbred and half quarter horse. Ben had Dunny Waggoner, a buckskin thoroughbred. Adam rode Sport, a flashy, bright sorrel gelding.

Though I remember the show from syndication in the 60's, I don't recall the horses' names, but according to imdb.com, Will Bill Hickock -- Buckshot, and Jingles -- Joker.
