Cute and congrats! He looks tobiano, splash, and sabino so yes, tovero. My favorite!
 
He's a cutie...I would keep a close eye on him though, as he seems to possibly be hydrocephalic. (fluid on the brain) He has a very suspiciously domed forehead, that makes me think this way. It can be lifethreatening, so although I don;t want to panic you needlessly, it is also something that is good to be made aware of. I am surprised the vet never mentioned it. Hopefully, in time it will go down some and he'll be OK. Maybe looked more like that shortly after birth due to a rough delivery?

I thought so too at first Mona but after really looking at all the pictures I think it may be an optical illusion cause by his funky face markings

and a tovero for sure since he has blue eyes which is not a tobi thing he obviously must carry one or more of the overo genes. For names how about;

assuming a typo here - Critter Farms Top Fants(Fancy?) Pants (sorry if I'm mistaken) [insert farm name in front]Twice as Fancy, sorry thats all that comes to mind at the moment

Cutie!

There is a racehorse doing very well right now by the name of Pants on Fire! If you want something with a sence of humor that would combine his parents names nicely!

Enjoy your baby.

It's easy to see why you are so in love with him; he's cute as a little button, and colorful, to boot!

Hope he continues to go right on and do well; know you'll be keeping a close eye on him!

I love Reignmaker's suggestion..."...Twice As Fancy"! Also like "Pants on Fire"...two excellent suggestions; can't think of anything better myself!

Congrats on your baby, and the best of luck with him from here on....
