How about Baby Paws for Scotland? I mean look, his symbol is a Scottie dog with a tartan scarf!

(pic from my little wiki.)

I also thought of Thistle Whistle. Even though her symbol is not actually a thistle.

I like the idea of Crumpet for the UK in general too, and a rain pony of some sort! Maybe a pony with a rain and sun symbol since the weather here can be... changeable sometimes.

Neat topic :) I think Talk-A-Lot (the sweet talkin pony) could represent my city, Brantford. Home of Alexander Graham Bell, and birthplace of the telephone :)

I would say Pretty Belle reminds me of Alabama because of the Southern Belles we used to have and also the Azalea Trail Maids we still have today :)

Hmm seeing as how I don't know of a corn/sweet corn or Abe Lincoln pony...not really sure what the best option for Illinois would be!

Hmmm...for Michigan ponies, you could go with car-themed ponies for the auto industry (Baby Racer, Daddy Berrytown, maybe 4-Speed), Royal Purple Princess for Mackinac Island because of her carriage symbol, or water-themed ponies since we have so many lakes (G3 Sapphire Shores, G2 Waterlily)

For my previous home state, South Carolina, beach-themed ponies are an obvious choice (any of the G1 Tropical Ponies!), Prom Queen Sweetheart Sisters (pageants are a huge thing...)...can't think of any ponies that address the more "colorful" aspects of SC but I bet there's a custom out there for that!   :lmao:

Onions, no... Breton stripes... um, no... baton shaped bread?... I think a Perfume Puff pony would be great, or just Rarity since she's a couturière. Her accent is probably just that which Americans would consider 'stereotypical European accent' so she might as well be French.

Breton separatists wouldn't be happy with one of these suggestions :P

I don't know, I think Fifi seems appropriate for France to me.

Perfumes, fashion, poodles and the like are all valid points, but I still wish there was
A PONY LIKE THIS

...Wait, did I just come up with an excuse to customize?

I accept Crumpet for England but let's break it down into Counties.

Yorkshire: Woosie. Drunk mice FTW.

For the football and tailgating obsessed part of the country... I nominate munchy! Hot dogs, brats, hamburgers all on one pony, oh my! We can pretend that everything on this pony is covered with "cheese" and she's yellow colored. Total WI pony.

Ha!  Perfect!  The best I could come up with was Honeybuzz or Bumblesweet (state insect is the honey bee)

Oh Oh Oh!!! Wig Wam would be good for Illinois.  Even though the Chief is no longer the symbol of the U of IL, he is still very much part of the campus, whether the university wants to acknowledge it or not.  Plus His orange color matches the school!  Oskee-Wow-Wow!

 :shocked: mind boggling

:lmao: I'd really like a custom Woosie with a normal tail one day.

No idea what to choose for Cambridgeshire. Something to do with people on bikes reading books, braying sloanes, rowing and having tea at 4.00. Just like Oxford then.

I'm half Welsh and I'd be happy to claim Taffy for wales... but I don't own her and don't have a picture...

Here's a picture of Majesty instead to support Hathorcat's suggestion that she belongs to Scotland (any excuse to show off my ponies)...

Nominating Gusty for Canada/Ontario because her symbol makes me think of pennies.

I totally agree!

Though denizens of my home province (Québec) might prefer this pony:

... but then again maybe not, since she's more France-French looking than Québec-French looking. :wonder:  So maybe they'd agree upon...

I love the gooey gravy mane and tail, and the cheese-curd patterned hooves... so tempted to order this shirt just for the curiosity value!  (And the lols, mustn't forget the lols...)
