Echoes Of Wisdom's white horse has a name?

A white horse that appears in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is a familiar sight to many longtime fans, but despite its recurring appearances, it is unclear whether Zelda's horse has its own official name. Link's horse, Epona, has long become an iconic part of the seriesappearing in many games as the hero's chosen steed. In comparison, Zelda's horse is slightly less recognizable, although recent games are undoubtedly changing this.

Although Zelda's appearance of a white horse with a blonde mane is already recognizable to many Breath of the Wild, WOT is not the first game to feature such a horse. In fact, this is how Epona was created in Ocarina of TimeZelda's white horse did the same; the young princess and Impa can be seen riding one of them to escape Ganondorf as he makes his move to take over Hyrule. This horse probably inspired the one Zelda rides WOTmemories and, by extension, her horse Echoes of Wisdom also.

The white horse in Echoes of Wisdom has no name

Unlike Epona, Zelda's horse is unnamed in the game

Despite a long association with undoubtedly similar steeds, the games never give Zelda's horse an official name. The White Horse that Impa gave to Zelda Echoes of Wisdom it remains unnamed and there is no mention of a similar horse WOTmemories also have a name. This is also worth noting EWa horse is a mare, while WOT AND TOTKa unique, tamable white horse is called a stallion; a change very different from the always female Epona, although this inconsistency in itself can be dismissed as the latter is clearly a descendant of Zelda's own mount.

All the best Zelda games have one thing in common

Zelda games have never been afraid to try new things, but this little detail seems to help make the best games in the series great.

It's unclear why the games didn't give Zelda's horse a canon name, but perhaps it's simply due to narrative reasons. It makes sense that players would learn Epona's name since she belongs to a playable character, but since Zelda didn't appear in her own game until Echoes of Wisdominserting a name for her steed in scenarios from other games could be difficult. But that doesn't explain why Echoes of Wisdom he did not propose a nickname for the horse.

An old Zelda comic may contain the answer to the White Horse's name

Other Zelda media may have the answer

Despite all this, however you can still find the official name of Zelda's horse by looking outside the games. In 1990, eight years earlier Ocarina of TimePrincess Zelda was depicted as having a white horse in the first issue of a comic book series produced by Valiant Comics, which was simply titled The Legend of Zelda. Zelda's horse's name in these comics was Storma name that feels as relevant today as it did in the 1990s.

Of course, it should be noted that these old comics are certainly not canon to the main games in the series Zelda concession. But on the other hand, the undeniable similarities in design combined with the lack of any other alternative, still make Storm a very reasonable name for Zelda's white horse in gaming. The name is even notably gender neutral, making it irrelevant whether it's Zelda's horse a hundred years earlier WOTevent was a mare or stallion, as was her identical offspring.

Although Storm as the name of the White Horse is somewhat of an obscure fact, it is still an intriguing curiosity that has extraordinary significance today. Without confirmation of the name in the game, it only makes sense to broaden your view of the franchise in search of it. In effect, however The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom continues the trend of the game not officially naming Zelda's horse, the idea of naming her horse Storm is a very appealing concept, and for many people, its little-known roots will likely only add to the appeal.
