G.A. Custer's horse was called Commanche. It was even popularized in the 1950's song by Johnny Horton.

He rode his horse Vic into battle at the Battle of Little Big Horn.
Another horse of Custer's, Dandy, was with the regiment but was with the pack train at the time as he was sick.
Comanche, was Capt. Keogh's horse.

After the Battle of Little Big Horn it was probably called Dead, just like him.
