Horse-naming is a weird exercise. You get an unintentionally misspelled American Pharoah and someone (who maybe had some familial strife) who named a horse Onoitsmymothernlaw. (Seriously, see for yourself).
But sometimes, simple is better. At least it is for this two-year-old gelding named Horsey McHorseface.

Australian owner Joe Rosetti, Horsey's owner, spun off the name from the leading candidate in a public poll to name a $300 million British polar research ship. The name? Boaty McBoatface.
"We had a laugh about it in the office and thought, 'Hey, why not'," racing manager Jake Bruce told CNN. "Joe's a good bloke and he's a good horse -- we just thought it would be a good fit."
You can't deny how great of a name it is. Say it out loud a few times and try not to laugh.
