When you live on a cattle ranch, there are plenty of cows to keep track of—but some calves are just too special not to name! Ree Drummond has been busy caring for her adorable bottle babies, including Bessie Lou, Fiona, and Ellie Mae. These little ones get extra attention from Ree and her family, and judging by their names, they're already part of the crew!
Ree has a history of falling for cows with big personalities, too. She once introduced readers to Daisy, a cow who fancied herself a dog. Daisy loved hanging out in the yard, snacking on freshly mowed grass, and coming and going as she pleased. Sounds like quite the character, doesn't she?
Whether you're naming a sweet bottle baby, a cow who's practically part of the family, or an entire herd of heifers and steers, finding the right name is all part of the fun. From Beau to Bessie, this list includes the best cow names for all your heifers and steers that'll have them mooing with approval.
