Naming Your Lusitano
Lusitano horses are named alphabetically by year.
If requesting your horses name to be added, please let us know which year as there are at least two possibles.
The unused letters (K, W and Y) do not exist in the original Portuguese alphabet, however there are one or two exceptions as in ‘Yacht’ (1975) for instance. Yacht is of the Andrade bloodline, his breeder followed the letters of the Spanish, PRE, at a time when both stud books were combined.
In Spain Y, W and K were used as they belong to the Spanish alphabet.
