Megan's+History+of+a+Name

History of Name ( Velvet ) One of the most unique names in my family is my horse's name..The Velveteen Rabbit aka Velvet. I didn't name Velvet, but when I bought him, I didn't want to change it, because it fit him so well. The past owners had a reason for naming him Velvet, it wasn't just random. They got the idea when he was in turnout. He was prancing around, like a rabbit, and he is as soft as velvet. He is also an amazing jumper, for his size.I have jumped almost 3 feet on him. He is very talented, trustworthy, loving, and I could never ask for anything other than him. The Velveteen Rabbit, is his show name, that means, that is what the announcer, calls him when we are showing. Velvet is his barn name, and that means this is his real name, thats what everyone calls him and that is what is on his stall plate and brushes and almost everything else. All, in all, Velvet's name fits him well and I wouldn't change it.
