Nothing impossible to pronounce.

Odyssey

Odyssey's baby needs a special name. Her mama is the oldest cow in the barn, she was breech, oh, and she is HUGE. And adorable!

Well, we have all the L names so far.
Mimi is permanently off limits. (Long story) as is Jillian.
The rest are great! We have a Marvel already, but not the others.

When my dad was a kid, they had a string of milk cows named this:

Maude
Maudette

A lot of the time, you can also show "possession" with cow names.

Mint's Joy or Jiggle's Pride, for example. A two word name.

This may not work for you, but sometimes with our registered cattle, we incorporate the sire's name, as well.

For example, we had a cow named eline.

When she had a heifer calf, if the sire's name was "Update", then the calf was named "Update's Eline". We also had a "Pine Drive Ravenlox" which was a heifer calf out of a cow named Ravenlox and a sire named Pine Drive Big Sky.

Are your cows Holsteins or what?

Two word names don't fit in the computer or on the tag, so we generally avoid them. We don't have registered animals except for a handful of guernseys. They can have longer names.
Same deal with incorporating the sire name--it gets too long.
