The three-part naming convention is made up of the breeder’s herd name (“Pendennis”), the sire's common name (“Faquyr”) and the foal's common name (e.g. “Union”), as required by the Canadian Horse Breeders' Association. The herd name is governed by who owned the mare at the time she was bred. The foal’s common name is assigned a specific letter of the alphabet, which is determined by the year of birth. We are facing a real challenge to stay with our railway naming theme reflecting railway terminology or names since 2010 is the ‘X’ year! Stallions must be registered with a unique common name.

The three-part name became mandatory circa 1974 while the assignment of alphabetical letters to the common name was made standard much more recently, in 1993. The letters I, O, Q and V are not used, owing to possible confusion with the numbers 1 and 0 and the letter W when tattooed letters are used for identification.
