RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

One would assume that they got Twilight's name from the book Twilight. I hope they didn't.
 
RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

i think twilight sparkle was one of the names that they didnt lose when they made mlp fim...i think it was twilight and applejack that were the only ones that survived.
 
RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

I think Twilight used to be called Twilight Shimmer in past generations. Spike was the other name Hasbro didn't lose besides Applejack's.

Personally, I think Twilight Sparkle sounds better than Twilight Shimmer.

Rainbow Dash was another name they kept. Although they completely re-designed her character from the previous generation.
 
RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

All of the names in the show are names from G3, with a few exceptions; Applejack is a name all the way from G1 (it's the only name Hasbro kept besides Spike), and Twilight Sparkle was Twilight Twinkle in G3. Her name is derived from a G1 pony who is simply called Twilight.

^i knew i was some how getting it right lol

why did they lose the rights to the names? that is my question...
 
RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

Pinkie Pie also survived G3. Her personality changed A TON. Obviously.

So did Rainbow Dash. She goes from a fashonista land pony (sort of like G4 Rarity, only with a lot of use of the word 'darling') to a tomboyish pegasus.
 
RE: The My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Not-Clan: 20% Cooler Than Official Clans

While the names are almost all G3, the personalities are based heavily on G1 ponies. Rainbow Dash, for example, is based heavily on the G1 pony Firefly. There's a chart, I'm too lazy to find it.

Hasbro sold a bunch of the names for whatever reason. Not sure what was up with that.

No, but seriously.

After some discussion and consideration and all that good stuff, JC and I decided that making the main discussion thread for FiM into a group would eliminate a lot of the problems that the old thread currently faces. Once this thread is approved, the old thread will be locked (the link to the old thread is here, for posterity). I know that part of our whole 'thing' was that we were a Not-Clan rather than a Clan/Group/Thingamajig, but I really feel like this is a better solution. And hopefully this will cut down the amount of...for lack of a better word, we'll call it "controversy" surrounding the old thread. Anyway.

Um, rules. Yeah.
  • Look, I know sometimes you want to make people feel better with a post like "that's neat" or "how fantastic". But they don't contribute to discussion, and in general are just annoying. Please try to put some content into each post.
  • If you want to post something that is potentially NSFW, whether it be an image or a clopfic, link to it and put a warning. I know that there's a lot of great stuff in this fandom that doesn't exactly fall under "PG", and I do want to encourage people to post anything they find that's interesting, but there are guidelines.
  • Imagedumps are...tentatively allowed. But try to put content into imagedump posts (besides images, natch), try to only do it if someone requests it, and if it's going to be a lot of images (say 8-10 or more) try to link to them instead.
  • Try to keep it civil! The whole point of the show is to promote love and tolerance. People have differing opinions, and you need to respect that. Also, it's a work of fiction. Try to not forget that.
  • IF YOU POST A VIDEO OR MORE THAN ONE IMAGE IN A POST, POST THEM BEHIND SPOILER TAGS! DO NOT BREAK THIS RULE!

I've tried to include all of the regular posters in the old thread into the Member List. If you're not in the Member List or you want to join the herd, just give me a PM and I'll add you. If you're listed as a member and for some reason you don't want to be, PM me about that too.

Current Topic
Based on the last few posts in the thread proper, the current topic seems to be pony names, where they came from, et cetera. Of course, the topic changes randomly, and I'm not expecting to be able to keep track of it. But sometimes there will be contests, I guess, and in that case I'll put that here-ish.

I'm also looking for poll suggestions! Unless PMJ just wants to edit one in. He does that.​

So yeah! Welcome to the new pony thread. Just think of it as a continuation of the old thread.

*Approved* Please PM all applications to this groups leader (Zenith)

RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

I was made a member without even registering. Thanks Zenith, lord of le MLP.

When I saw it was closed, I was seriously going to quit. No kidding. But then. This baby happened.

Anyway, according to the current topic, the only name I don't know about is Rarity. I mean, it makes no sense.
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

Rarity's name probably has to do with the fact that she is associated with gemstones...which are rarities, you see. Again, it's the name of a G3 pony, so I'm not really sure. I believe that the G1 pony the current Rarity was based on is Glory.

Same here lol

Anyways, I think Rarity was named that because her talents of sewing and magic (being a unicorn) are rare, I suppose.
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

humph....i liked the thread better :( but at least people wont complain as much...

well this is my reasoning behind the name: rarities cutie mark is diamonds and they are rare and beautiful, rarity aspires to be beautiful just like a diamond...thus....um...being rare? HEY at least i tried...
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

I was planning on PM'ing Zenith, but seeing I'm on the member list already, I guess I can post here.

I really think an official club is better. So, it prevents any person from posting who wants to stir up trouble without PM'ing Zenith.

With Rarity, I agree with Zenith on how Rarity got her name.
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

I was looking at the old thread this morning and was all disappointed because it was locked. Oh man was I going to become less active. I'm kinda surprise at how long it took me to find this, but it did make my day. Anyways names.

Pinkie Pie: Pink, likes sweets.
Rarity: Loves rare fabrics, gems, and whatever.
Twilight Sparkle: Lolwut? Based off an older name right?
Applejack: Apples. All day everyday.
Raindow Dash: Fast, Rainbow colored.
Fluttershy: Flutters and is shy.
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

twilight sparkle would refer to how the magic she produces sparkle and twinkles....

images

just like that :p
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

Twilight Sparkle's name I think came from a Gen 3 pony name Twilight Twinkle.

Yeah...
 
RE: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Clan-Clan: 20% cooler than...everything.

The only names that I know that are related are Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Bonbon
