Benavon
"Celtic · Place"
Why Benavon?
Combining "Ben" (mountain) with "Avon," the Celtic word for river, Benavon means "mountain river." It brings to mind a swift stream born in high peaks, carving its way through valleys with persistent, brave force.
This name fits a brave and bold mare whose spirit is as untamed and determined as a river finding its path. She possesses a strong, relentless drive and the courage to navigate any course.
A brave palomino Friesian mare who commands attention — the kind of horse that turns heads before even starting to move.
