We named our "ranch" (I'm not allowed to call it a farm per Hubby) long before we even owned any land.  We just recently moved from Massachusetts, just outside of Boston to southeast Texas, and we finally were able to afford to buy land.  We have 57 acres in a very quiet area.  Our place is called The Doubleheart Ranch, named by my Hubby.  We will be registering the name at the same time we register our brand, which is two interlocked hearts.

I have a friend who named her place and I laughed when I first saw the name.  She had forgotten to put in the letter "R" where it should have been and the name was Moonstuck (should have been Moonstruck) Acres.  I still laugh over that one.
