Italy is the most amazing in regards to renaming. Some ponies got names that related somewhat to their color, their symbol, or their US name. (Like Moondancer became Luna (moon).) But then you get Tiny Bubbles becoming "David." Well . . . okay.

Hasbro-UK probably didn't have it any easier, even if like you say, they do speak English "just as well" (some might argue better ).
Interesting info/theories/input, thanks for sharing everyone! Still definitely interested so keep them coming! Very interesting read!Quote from: BlushingBlue on June 26, 2018, 12:11:41 PMHasbro-UK probably didn't have it any easier, even if like you say, they do speak English "just as well" (some might argue better ). I didn't mean it that way, sorry about that. I meant it like "just aswell," like "they speak English also," my wording was bad there.

You guys speak American, which we probably don't speak quite as well...*runs away before she is pelted with fakies*

I think in some cases, though, Hasbro UK just changed names because they felt they'd thought of something better. I mean, they had to print up their own backcards for the UK anyway. So why not renamed Jabber & Jebber to Tickles & Giggles, etc.
(ie Tiffany means white, albeit not a fan of humanoid names on ponies) but others are a bit...
