Where have all the Unipegs gone? They became Alicorns!

*giggle* An alligator with a horn? Ali-corn I like it!

[should be noted I was sitting staring at the computer trying to link the "horn" with crocodile for about 5 mins before I understood...having a slow day!]

That would be a Crococorn!

I have no idea, and I've been wondering the same thing! I call them pegacorns or winged unicorns usually.
I think alicorn came about during the g4 craze, but I'm not sure.

In English, I tend to call them pegacorn.  Or in Spanish, always unicornio alado (winged unicorn).

The alicorn thing made me confused for quite a time =P

LOL!  cat, and I was with a:  "what's an ali...?  and what it has to do with corn?  Maybe hungry...?"

I'm the one being slow with the ali-corn and crococorn XDDD

[hathorcat]

Lol @ Dyzarktarzk! We are quite a pair!.....maybe an "Ali-corn" is actually a vegetarian crocodile?

[hyenacub]

No, you silly people!  An alicorn is corn that fights in the boxing ring...

And I do call them Unipegs as well

The unicorn comes first cuz the head most of the times comes first and then comes the wings

You're ALL making me crack up in laughter. 

Now where is our corn with boxing mitts drawing?

[Bag of Magic Food]

Time for minds to be blown...as a kid, I used call "alicorns" Changelings because when I played games, they could change between them, revealing their full "alicorn" form in a moment of crisis (the rest of the time might look like regular pegs or unis, although they could go about in their true form too). YOUR MIND IS NOW BLOWN.

Haha!  My own My Little Pony theory was that "guardian angel" type ponies had mastered the art of producing or concealing wings or horns, and that's how I reconcile that My Little Pony Tales episode with the toy canon.

See for me Alicorn sounds awful.  I associate "Ali" with the name Al and specifically male names that Al is short for.  Therefore it just sounds wrong to me.  Like it is the name of some big burly guy like on Tool Time, or a big scary vicious dog, or something of the night, or some kind of dark creature instead of the creature of light that a unicorn/Pegasus is usually.

Now I think you've tempted someone with Photoshop to turn Al Borland into a unicorn.

As a child, I referred to unicorn/pegasus as winged unicorns. As in, they were unicorns with wings. (So unicorns came with wings, or without) -- if that makes sense. Probably because Unico as a little unicorn did not have wings, but as he grew up he gained wings.
And pegasus were just winged horses... and in no relation to a winged unicorn. @_@ pegasus do not have horns.
I hope that make sense.
And then there are horses <3 lol

But I say unipeg when it comes to MLP.

My husband's name is Alistair and we call him Ali.  And I could totally see him as a pastel unicorn, because he is just that girly.

Unipeg and Pegacorn sound silly to me, they only seem to fit with fakies and old-gen customs with a horn and wings. I like the idea I read earlier in the thread where Unipegs are Unicorns with wings, Pegacorns and pegasi with horns, and ALicorns are ponies with both.

ALicorn sounds the best, honestly, and the whole "it's the unicorn's horn" theory is sillier than the word Pegacorn.

Unipeg and Pegacorn just make me think of a 1 legged unicorn and a corn cob with wings.

It's not a "theory".  It's the original meaning of the word alicorn.

I like it being vegetarian XDD  Maybe then I can pet one... *dreams*

Corn boxing?  XDD

I saw some posts of people saying they never heard of the word meaning that until they saw it mentioned online, so honestly, it could be whatever you think it means.
