Pinto horses get their name from their coat coloration, which is characterized by large patches of white mixed with another color, such as black, brown, or chestnut. The word "pinto" is derived from the Spanish word "pinta," meaning "painted."

I believe pinto comes from the word ''pintar'' in Spanish which means painting/paint.The horse itself looking like its been painted is probably why the pinto horse is called pinto.
