Well are you getitng a regestered one? You can give them a barn name according to their reg. name. If you are getting one its very likely it already has a name.
If it helps we have two horses, a reg. pinto named dreamweavers ranger(ranger) and an appaloosa named Schatze, which is german
Also, I dont usually name animals before I get them because they usually earn a name

I like:
Tsunami
Freeway
Chaos
Elmer
I can think of a million more but it depends on if it's a boy or a girl or their color or body type.

once your horse comes into your life, and you get to know each other, he/she will tell you. my 4 yo walking horse filly is rose, after my cherokee great-grandmother. it just came to me as i was watching her. skye is the same--his gait is smooth as the wind, and i wanted to honor my father, and twh generally have their sires name, so delights skye warrior. in my opinion its bad luck to name a critter before it comes, and they are so full of their own personalities, you could give it a totally wrong name . . . sorry for no caps or puncutation, my keyboard isn't working too well

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

My horse's name is Harley... why?
Because my husband wanted a motorcycle and instead ended up buying his wife a horse ;)

lunch meat.
rosita is on the money!
If life bestows you with such a wonderful beast (sometimes crabby & difficult, but still wonderful); when you spend the time bonding, the "name" will just come.
For some reason, my personal horses were "M" names (Magnus, Marika & Morocco). Magnus was my pony since I was 2 yrs. old (14.3 hh and lived until the ripe old age of 32 yrs)...ballsy bugger; competed against Olympic level horses (me & him in pic.), he didn't know he was "small". "Morocco" we bought from the meat/glue market (literally, $300), he also went on w/ me to compete for Canadian young rider's team...and "Marika" came with her name (Hungarian) -we liked it & kept it.
.....Enjoy your new pal and the more time you spend w/ he/she, the faster the name will come to both of you. You'l be a team for life.
I'm clearly green w/ envy! I miss my "horse-days"!! ENJOY!!!
(feel free to PM me w/ any "equine questions"- or your new pony pictures" ;) I trained for 3-Day Olympics, Canadian Team)
Jumping for joy for you!
Cheers!

Congratulations on getting into the horse world! You must really love these expensive animal hobbies, eh?
I have had two horses in my life. My first one was a Thoroughbred mare named Sierra and my current one and the one in my avvie a palomino quarter horse (BTW...IMO Quarter horses are the only way to go) is named Digger. If I get another horse, which I hope to in a few years I want to name him Desmond after my favorite LOST character.
Let us know what you decide on.

so many choices:D
since i will be getting a "older" horse (7-10 years) it might be allready named... but, then again... i might find one thats not:D
conchqueen, i will be PMing you with some q's (if you dont mind) :o :D

lunch meat.
LOL, I've actually eaten horse in Norway. Had myself a Horse Sandwich. It wasn't that great, kinda tough. Get some bread, a little mayo, little lettuce, some cheese, then add a horse lunch meat. I also ate whale, that was better.
but I'd suggest "eugene" lol that name kills me for some reason.
