Favian Means Man of Wisdom
The name Favian is of Latin origin and means “man of wisdom.” Very fitting for our Big Red Horse who is quite the schoolmaster and wise beyond his years!
According to Think Baby Names, Favian is a rare first name for a man. Again, this is another great parallel, because the Trakehner stallion, Favian *Ps* represents very rare bloodlines.
Warmblood stallion Favian *Ps* stands at Two Run Creek Trakehners, just North of Atlanta.
Trakehner Stallion Favian gets his 15 minutes
Welcome to The Big Red Horse, a blog about Favian *Ps*, a big red Trakehner stallion we are fortunate to have as a member of our breeding operation, Two Run Creek Trakehners. I hope that this blog allows this amazing animal (and family member) to get his 15 minutes of fame.
Bill & I purchased Favian in March 2007 from Chuck and Danette Wharton of Lancaster Oaks. His arrival at our farm, Thistledown, was a wonderful occasion. I smile every morning when he greets me with a nicker asking to be fed first. He is always happy to go for a ride, teach me a new dressage movement or simply to have his big red ears scratched.
I hope you will enjoy the tales of the Big Red Horse, a warmblood horse with a twinkle in his eye.
Special thanks to photographer Karri Henning for this great shot of Favian taken at the American Trakehner Association convention in Texas earlier this month.
