Name Your Horse

Name Your Horses (NYH) is a simple mod that allows you to rename any of your horses. It's a feature that I always thought was sorely lacking in the vanilla game, and while Convenient Horse Herding does have a feature to rename your horses, it's pretty tedious to use, since it involves going letter by letter through a dialogue tree. NYH uses a new resource made by schlangster and MrJack called SkyUILib to use an actual text input menu, much like the one used when creating your character. Because of the way SkyUILib is designed, there is absolutely no need to download SkyUILib to install this mod.

Using NYH is very easy. When you start the game, you will have a hotkey assigned to naming your horse. By default, it's U. Once you've bought and ensured that you own the horse, make sure your crosshair is pointed towards your horse of choice, and press the assigned hotkey. A menu will pop up, allowing you to rename your horse. It looks like this:

Simply type in the name you want your horse to have, and press Enter. If you press Tab, then the menu will be exited and the horse's prior name will stay. To update your horse's name, you have to look away and then look back at the horse. This isn't a bug, the game just needs to update.

If you have SkyUI installed, then changing the hotkey is very simple. Just open up your menu, navigate to the Mod Configuration Menu, and select Name Yo
