I like Ladybird, just not quite as much as Seashell, Brazil Bowtie and Bubbles. One of these days I would like to see Hasbro make a ladybug pony in red and black. I have no idea why they shy away from those 2 colors.What's her name in Greek? Is it just the Greek word for ladybug?
Eww who does that? Makes me wonder if they're trying to get rid of leaking ponies?

Well, Hasbro used plasticizer to make the vinyl soft, so I don't now about hard plastics. It is contagious too, the fumes can get others leaking.
I think I recall it happening to Breyers. Someone said it shrunk their horses a little and they got sticky.

I think ponies who are already down the cycle are more prone, but it can get the process started for others It's best to quarantine the leaking ones until they are completely done.

Is it just the Greek word for ladybug? Erm. Something beginning with a P. It isn't Ladybird or anything like that, I think it just means Easter Pony or something...it's some kind of play on words with the Greek word for Easter and for Ladybird...I think.But we didn't know any of this when greek ponies first started showing up, and I nicknamed her Ladybird, because I have no imagination, and it stuck, because apparently nor did anyone else xD. http://mylittlewiki.org/wiki/LadybirdWiki has bravely attempted to spell it To stay on the thread topic - I like Brazilian ponies more than Greek ponies.
On a related note, my unpopular/just really random opinion is that there should be much, much more focus on rambling on about the names given to ponies in foreign languages But probably most people aren't as obsessed with foreign languages as me!
Late to the party, but it looks as if the pony's name is meant to be Πασχαλιτσα (Paschalitsa), which is indeed Greek for 'ladybird'. But Πάσχα (Pascha) is Easter, so, since the pony was sold in an Easter egg and has ladybirds on her, then yes, it's a play on words. Possibly ladybirds are especially associated with spring/Eastertide in Greece?
Unpopular opinion - people shouldn't use translated names when the translation sounds stupid. I am sure Meezing doesn't literally mean 'sing a long'.
