Mules are sterile--they won't mate with a horse, a mule, a donkey, or any other animal. They aren't breedable. That being said, there are two cases known in which a mule mated and gave birth to another hybrid. There isn't a name for a mule/horse hybrid because it's so rare. The actual animals were named Blue Moon and Lightning Strikes.
