    Does your farm have a name? You could use that.
    Maybe something based on the names of your foundation stock - what are your new girls' names?

    Thank you for your reply. Our farm has a dumb name. Its Glenside. Maybe I could use Sunnyside or Sonnyside Alpaca's! My plan eventually once I have bred some lovely females is to have a small stud and I will start showing next year if I can purchase a show quality lady and or have one of the babies to be of show quality. Just trying to think of a name before I join the AAA and need to register my unborn cria's. I also thought of "Luseal". Not really sure where it came from. My ladies are call Cinderella (she has a longer stud name) and Lucy who also has a longer stud name.

    Lucella? Lucerella?

    Glenn is a word for valley - so a name with Valley in it would be about your farm. You could call it Valley Side which would have pretty much the same meaning as Glenside but work better in Australian English.

    What about Silver-Rose Alpacas?

    Thank you all for your wonderful suggestions. I am really liking Valley Side and that does fit seeing as our farm is in a Valley and I didn't know Glen meant Valley so its sort of exactly the same name as the farm. My DD wants Tumble Weed (she loves a movie with a place called Tumble Weed Stables) but it doesn't have any meaning.
    I googles Sunny Side Alpacas and there is another alpaca farm called that but its not in Australia. I guess that wouldn't matter then! I guess I'll have to make sure know one else has the names to be able to use them.
