[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1122102, member: 9267"] the name helps me remember that information, because their full name incorporates their sire name and the first letter or first two letters of their dam name. But since I'm naming registered cattle this thread does not apply to me :-) I do name the other type of cattle as well, and follow the same format. The first lot of calves born to my herd a lot of them got names based on their looks or behaviour: Runna, Blanche, Mermaid (was born into a deep puddle), Obstra (short for obstreperous), Dark Eyes, Gaunt, Ghostie (both nearly died of scours, actually, Ghostie did die but I resurrected her), Speckles, Gem, Princess. Middle name is their sire, first is the herd name. [/QUOTE]
