What game were you playing?
Red Dead Redemption 2, I've been trying to name most of my horses after Arthurian figures, because... Well, because Arthur. So far, those three are the only ones with proper names.
My first horse was the $15 Morgan you get from the story mission. I named him Archie, Archie the Morgan for Arthur Morgan. Archie was afraid of everything... Snakes, guns, rocks, trees, moving too fast, spinning in circles... He'd have been afraid of his own shadow if he'd thought to look at it.
But he did his best and worked hard during some of my most intense trapping days. Archie eventually wandered off into the wilderness one day when I was taking a third horse somewhere, and it bumped Archie out of the "Main horse + Temp horse" slots.
Lady Fiona was a Hungarian Halfbred, the first horse I ever tamed. She was wild and strong, and also a bit sluggish and oddly skittish for a warhorse. She was a good girl, but a bit dull and not nearly as brave as she could have been. She died when trying to follow me when I was riding a train, and the train drove onto a bridge over a ravine. Fiona followed the train, but not the bridge.
Unnamed Horse ("Pretty Girl") was a Tennessee Walker, with a gorgeous patterned coat. She was the first horse I saw after Fiona died and I needed a new ride. Pretty Girl was with me for a fair while, as she ended up being a quick and strong girl as well. Eventually she left the limelight and spent most of her time in the stable, until I let her go to a respectable handler who would treat her well.
Percival was a big dark-coated Shire with some contrasting white flecks. I took him off of a dead man's wagon and proceeded to ride around on him for a while, admiring the view from his massively tall back. Percival was a friendly sort, and quite brave, but had a penchant for murdering wildlife, as well as a maximum speed of "chonk". He was later put in the stable to rest up. Percival hated trees.
Galahad was a Thoroughbred, strong and fast with a magnificent dark-red coat that shone in the sun. Galahad gave me a taste of speed beyond casual riding horses and sluggish draft horses, while still being courageous in the face of gunfire. However, it wasn't long after we'd fully bonded that I came upon Guinevere, and was fairly smitten. Galahad was then relegated to the second-hand role, and has been an admirable companion on long trips as well as a proficient carrier of heavy loads and scaler of sheer cliffs. Glitches took him from me, and he will be missed. Even though he liked to run into me when I was riding ahead on trails, and once nearly killed me and my horse by repeatedly shoving us towards a sheer precipice while we tried to clamber back onto solid footing...
Guinevere was the wild white Arabian who runs around in the north. I ended up finding her completely by accident when I was hunting the white buffalo, and managed to capture and tame her on the first try. She's of course from the best horse breed in the game, and is worlds faster than any other horse I've ridden, Galant Galahad included. She also has excellent staying power, with the stamina to gallop across entire states. She's irritated by loud noises, but she remains firm until things are quite literally biting at her heels before bucking me off. Guinevere is, however, an incredibly dirty girl... Judging from the amount of trail dust she picks up (and promptly complains about), I'm guessing her parentage is half air purifier.
