Right, but the animal would not have been named that if the people breeding these horses saw them as individuals instead of objects. "Just laughing at the name" completely ignores literally everything else connected to the name.
Yeah but horse names have always been a tad bit weird historically. Like who looks at a horse and goes "Hmmm yes you shall be Bucephalus"?
Someone who thinks it looks bull-headed?
Yes, and horses have been abused historically. The two are intertwined and inseparable.
