This thread is gold.

Someone might have already mentioned her but,

"Ehh, this thing's for kids, right? They don't stay up until midnight. They won't know what color it's supposed to be. Ship it out, we've got to get to cocktail hour."

The Tropical Pony and Sparkle SHS sets.

[StillandSilent]

It has always been my headcanon that the newborn twins babyish symbols faded off and were replaced with more adult ones.  Milkweed and Tumbleweed fit with a western theme, so the rocking horses would become something associated with the Wild West.
Also, newborn twins were always mixed gender.   
More on topic, why does Starflower not have flowers around her stars like she does in pictures?  I always thought mine was faded, but nope.

Crystal Lake has nothing to do with lakes, nor undead killers.

Rocky does not have rocks of any kind. That said, a geode pony could be cool. A round rock, with a jewel embedded in it.

Most of the birthstone ponies don't make sense in name, symbol and color theme.

I like that storyline! Now I'm going to be up all night trying to think of what each set could be when they're adults. Noodles and Doodles could be an Italian chef and an art teacher, respectively; future Rattles and Tattles are a mechanic and the owner of a celebrity gossip magazine.

ETA: sadly though...I just don't see poor Bunkie amounting to anything industrious...and would Peeks end up becoming a Peeping Tom?

Rocky doesn’t seem to have anything to do with mountains, pictures or horror shows (possibly in that order) either.

A nurse or daycare center. Baby ponies always need watching

And I imagine the Glittering SHS ponies are marching with ill-found confidence towards this discussion as well...

Did you figure out that the G SHS names would work if they were in a different order?

Speckles and Bunkie sound like disgusting symptoms of some childhood disease.

Admittedly Fleecy and Fluffy don't make any more sense with safety pins, but at least they aren't contagious.

I have been thinking about dying one a different color but I'm not sure how it would work.

A round rock, with a jewel embedded in it.

And brushable hair?? xD

I assume Midnight Dream's being purple is the 'dream' part of the name...

Ooo if you ever get around to it, I'd love to see the results! Sounds like a cool experiment ovo

Midnight Dream sounds like the name of some cheap chocolates sold in excessively fancy packaging with the name written in gold cursive.
