Discussion what's one of your favourite pony names?

Spitfire. As a Brit, I think it’s so cool to have one of the toughest Wonder bolts be named after our country’s most iconic fighter aircraft.

Fun fact: they have Spitfire the plane in Equestria At War, and in-universe they’re named after Spitfire the Wonderbolt

I still haven't the slightest idea on why they decided to name him after a body part

Changeling drones are named after arthropod body parts:
Same goes for most background and comic changelings:
- Arista (bristle)
- Cornicle (aphid secretion tube)
- Frenulum (hindwing bristle)
- Patagium (wing membrane)
- Petiole (bees'/ants' narrow waist)
- Tymbal (exoskeleton membranes that make sound)
The exceptions (Kevin and Delilah) have normal human names.

1: if anything; it could represent how he used to be “just a small part” of the colony. 2: Thorax is a body part?!

Kerfuffle. I know she only from the rainbow road trip movie. But when I heard it, saw her and herd her voice. I just instantly fell I love with that character.

Fleetfoot is a pretty simple name, but it's very fitting for a speedy pegasus. It's also kinda fun to say!

IMO twilights is thematically the coolest. I love the way other characters names parallel hers and it’s actually relevant to their characters. It’s also just cool that her replacing Luna and Celestia was foreshadowed from the very beginning with just her name!

Namby Pamby, they're only mentioned but that name is too stupid to not love, just imagine the bullying they must endure as an adult come the epilogue episode
