About male cows names
How male cows names are built
Each cow name is a single word lifted whole from a gendered list, 117 male entries and 149 female entries, with no assembly. "Boomboom", "Rocky", and "Gus" come off the male list, "Shade" and "Bumbles" off the female one. The pools hold short, barnyard-warm picks alongside a few sillier ones.

Naming notes
Length matters for calling across a pasture, so the banks stay short and shoutable ("Clover", "Bessy"). The comic entries like "Boomboom" suit cozy ranching games where one animal is the relief, while the plain old-fashioned names carry more weight in grounded western fiction. Choose by tone: a working herd reads better with the homely picks than the jokes.
