I'll try not to do repeats!

I like Lolligiggle, actually. Wordplay!

I'm not thrilled with Kimono. Isn't that the equivalent of naming a pony "Shirt?"

Also not a fan of ponies named for real life/"human" places, like Hollywood or Honoluloo. To me, ponies live in a completely foreign fantasy land and have no association with humans!
Also don't like when the creators just name a pony after their symbol instead of something even a little creative, like with poor Cupcake, Waterfire, and...did I read that right? Orange Flower? Wow is that bad. It's not even a blossom from an orange tree...her symbol literally is an orange flower. Uuggghh

Don't knock Waterfire's name. Hasbro is located in Rhode Island and in the summer they (Providence, the capital city of Rhode Island) have an event called Waterfire where they have bonfires in these metal baskets on the river. While it has never been officially stated that the pony's name was inspired by the event it seems a little too convenient.

My apologies for not knowing that.

(I don't like WaterFire's name either ;))

No one can know everything pony :) And the name is speculation anyway rather than hard fact!

Tra-la-la (does any song come to mind?)
I really am not sure/I hope we are not thinking of the same song, but now I will have nightmares of the song this name brought to my mind (the one by Gunther)

...and Googling Morning Glory made it even worse  :freak:

I nearly died of laughter at foalpatrol's post though XD

Morning Glory and Night Cap make me giggle, yes. Not just because their alternate meaning, but they've always been like "eh what?"

How about Brights Brightly, Orange Flower, and Keen Bean? Or Twirlerina and Zippy Zinnia?

I never liked Port-O-Bella. I get the pun, and the pony itself is adorable, but the name reminds me too much of porta potties.

I would just like to take a moment to point out that the pony 'Silver Rain' is in no way 'silver' or 'rainy'. She's blue and white, and her mark/symbol is a bow. P:

It's not a bad name or anything, but it's always been a bit of a pet peeve since I found out about her (after I'd already picked this username).

Well, it's better than naming her "Golden Shower" :)
