I dont have this version, she's very pretty and I would like to get her.

I've the somewhat similar Silver Swirl of the light up family set, love the white and silver combination and elegant symbols

This particular pony is new to me, and I'll pass. She's very pretty, but she's her design is too similar to Princess Silver Swirl, and I'd rather have her, as she was one of my childhood ponies.

Pass here. She's basically Silver Swirl with no horn

I didn't even notice she's got a (slightly) different name before now... I just thought "oh it's another Silver Swirl". I don't get why G2 kept doing the whole "the same pony, but with a different name and maybe some other slight difference" thing x) Very confusing.

It's my understanding that the last years of G2 were handled in France (but exported to various parts of Europe), which could explain all the weird stuff going on with the English names.

Some of the later G2s use their French names even in the English part of the packaging. Such as Flora (Morning Glory) and Precious (translated from Ivy's French name Précieuse). I believe the name for this particular pony is consistent with Silver Swirl's in French (which is Scintillante). Why her name became Star Swirl in English is probably because of an oversight. These mostly weren't sold in English speaking markets, so they likely didn't put much thought or care into whatever English name was given on the packaging.

She's pretty, considering I'm not generally a fan of G2 ponies. If she had a horn, I'd consider her...she would look a little like my screen-name namesake!

She is so pretty! G2s have been growing on me! Would be happy to add her to my collection some day
