Did I mention it looks stunning, you can ride a horse and a giant boar, you can fight while riding, you can turn into a wolf, it looks scary, big enemies and a weird sinister looking gremlin thing? And hot Zelda.


Feel free to continue.

Everybody will choose to call it Epona anyway. Except the selcet few that choose to call it 'your big penis' then when Link goes to a town somebody will say "Oh, I like your big penis. Can I have a ride?".

Indeed - they just called it Epona for the sake of it. But the horse is just any old horse.

I doubt it will have an official name, but most will just call it Epona anyway...

No, Tomm is right. Eiji Aonuma said it himself that they named the horse Epona just for familiarity's sake.

I remember one video where they were naming the horse, and said they just called in Epona for familiarity's sake. Dont know whether its official name is Epona tho'...

Unless you change it, Epona's the standard name. Like Link is for your character.

On the screenshots you could download to DS at E3, it was called Epona, so I think that's officially it's name.

But you can name Link yourself, that doesn't stop him being Link.
