What is the Silliest pony name ever?

[Leave a Whisper]

Shampoo 
I know her symbol is a bottle so maybe it makes sense but it is a too weird name for me

There is a pony named Shampoo?

Re: Fluttershy
With G3 Fluttershy, the first of the name, it was a play on "Shutterfly" - a synonym of shutterbug. With G4 Fluttershy it just references her A. fluttering and B. being shy. Including being too shy to fly half the time

Pick-a-lily's kinda silly.

Spoiled Rich is just. No.

Barber Groomsby is just Bleck.

Silly Lily has silly in it.

Pinto Pipsqueak-Like, you couldn't just call him Pipsqueak?

Bubble Muffins-What is a bubble muffin precisely?

Any character who has different names in the same era. I'm not talking Twilight and Twilight. Or a pony who was called something else in a different country. I mean like, DJ Pon-E also being called Vinyl Scratch or something stupid like that. Name the darn horse and stick with that name Hasbro.

Pipsqueak is too generic a word to be a trademarkable name on its own.

Bubble Muffins... That's silly, but it's preferable to her brony-given name. More acceptable to use.

As for the DJ Pon-3/Vinyl Scratch thing.. That's just a case of stage name vs. actual name, and Hasbro alternating which they slap on merch of her because they want to keep both as trademarks.

Point one: Generic has never stopped Hasbro before. Bumblebee, Firefly, Duke, Blinky,  Riot.

Point 2: Good point.

Point 3: She's not the only pony they do this with. Its rather annoying.

Point 1: Yes, but they have to use prefixes or other modifications when doing it nowadays.For And some names are more generic than others. For instance, Bumblebee isn't quite as generic as, say, Jazz. Nowadays Jazz always has to have a prefix like "Autobot" or "Special Ops" tacked onto his name, yet Bumblebee is fine.

Point 3: Perhaps, but it can't be helped it seems. *shrug*

It gets confusing.    Is G3 Cherry Blossom the same as G3 Chereliee? The Bon Bon/Sweetie Drops name change never really made sense to me since she was referred to as Bon Bon in the show.

We've always had a mismatch between show names and toy names (most especially here with US names and UK ones in the animation, but even within the US there's Lilac and whatever the boy pony's name is that's not correct to release. I imagine they're prototype names that they later don't get licences for.

For me the pony's name is what is on the package that appears in stores here. If they're not released then their name is pretty irrelevant to me as I don't watch FIM. So I consider Sweetie Drops her official release name.

But it's a really stupid name.

Cheerilee is also a stupid name. Cherry Blossom was much nicer.

I agree on Cheerilee and Sweetie Drops as names even though I really love Cheerilee the unicorn. I also think Romperoni is a silly name.

Romperooni is pretty silly.

[Strawberrysweets]

Wierdest one for me is the pony Romper since the norwegian word for butt is.. rumpe.
The name dont really fit for someone with rabbits as a symbol and I cant really translate it to Norwegian either.
Its the one pony I have not told my nieces the name on.

Romp means to play. Usually it refers to rough play.

[haircutsandhighlighters]

Romper is also a name for a type of one-piece outfit often worn by small children. I have no idea what that has to do with rabbits or ponies either.

Rabbits and small children like to romp.

I don't think anyone's mentioned Woosie yet. Is Woozsie constantly dizzy?

Huh. By reading your post I just learned the entomology of the slang word "rump", which usually is "butt".

Kinda echoing everyone else, to "romp" ("romping") is also slang, which I have seen used anywhere between wistful bounding/skipping and rough horse-play.

Not silly, but just poor use: "Pillow Talk" I think is the WORST, since that is the sweet-nothings that happen after making love.

Etymology, even. Entomology is bugs.

That they do. You're right

I forgot to add kiss and make up and kiss and tell?
Did their parents want them to kiss everyone or something?

[LadyMoondancer]

Oh yeah, Kiss & Tell and Pillow Talk.  W-o-w, Hasbro.  Ha ha ha.

Also good point about Pony Bride.  Do you think she constantly divorces ponies so she can get married again and again?  "This is my identity. This is my life.  This is my (34th) wedding."

Strawberry Reef is another weird one.  Strawberries, and the coral reefs.  Two things that have nothing to do with each other.

So tempted to make another association there, but will probably be chased by the mods if I do.

Woosie is a good call. Also that the spelling is bizarre.

Tall Tales is also a little controversial. Encouraging lying? I know it's a 'clever' play on words given her giraffe symbol but seriously...?
