Toy vs Show names
by Obsidian » Wed Nov 30, 2011 8:27 pm
I'm sure most of us have seen the blind bag ponies that give new names to long-known fanon bg ponies. Personally, I think a lot of them could be combined into fairly regularish names. Off the top of my head:
Show/Fanon Name Blind Bag Name
My Thoughts
Blues Noteworthy
Put those together and it makes a decent name right there
Lyra Heartstrings
Not quite as good, but still workable
(The Great and Powerful) Trixie Lulamoon
I think this one could work too. I could easily see Trixie dropping/avoiding her surname for the sake of her "Showmare Persona."
Even better if her name is actually "Trixie Lula Moon."
Carrot Top Golden Harvest
This one I can't make work. Best I can come up with is Carrot Top being a nickname so widely used it just seems natural to call her that.
Ditzy Doo Derpy Hooves
Same thing, one is her real name, the other is a nickname so well used it just seems natural. The question is, which is which?
Will add more if I remember.

Or better yet, what if Trixie isn't even her name and it's just Lulamoon?
This signature needs to be about 20% more Mr. Bunny.

Kinda like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson? Yeah, that could work too.

I'm cool with Trixie just being a stage name.

Looks like we have some updates on names. Perhaps HASBRO is listening to us?
my thoughts:
I like that Trixie and Lyra had their names fixed
Flippity Flop = Pinkie + Raity + Fusion Dance?
Skywishes, Ribbon Wishes, Rainbow Wishes - I'm sensing a pattern here
Diamond Rose, that's not how you spell Phoe (One of the EQD staff)
Ploomette - Ugly name, are mismatched mane and tails canon now?
Golden Delicious - Unicorn member of the apple family?
Way to fail on Fluttershy guys
Must obtain Princess Luna
Sapphire Shore got a facelift or something

Its one thing I've always disliked about hasbro (because they are the bosses of the WoTC DnD minies).. When they fail at paint jobs. Seriously.. Fluttershy. That's about the only thing that annoys me with this is when they just fail at getting colors on the toys they make.

I'm going to be quite annoyed if these never end up showing in Maryland either.

So Lyra Heartstrings and Trixie Lulamoon are officially official now. I'm ok with this.
