I thought it was because their names would sound too general to successfully copyright. Daring Do, archaic slang. Diamond Tiara, name of an object. Snips, maybe, but Snails, probably not. Twist, this begs the question of how come Rarity by itself is more appropriate at the patent office. The story of Trixie Lulamoon, when considering the preceding, adds other elements. Why not file her full self-given title, “The Great and Powerful Trixie”? Is it just ‘cause it wouldn’t fit on the box? Then, when they’re given only Trixie, perhaps this proceeded into the creation of her toy-exclusive surname. It does seem as if toy-exclusive names aren’t that hard to understand after all, yeah?

“This is the wildest, most outlandish thing I’ve ever done.”

With a white blush, eye liner and mascara, she could be a kind of Catrina of mexican Day of Muerte.

Pony Mania is a serious condition don’t you dare act like she’s happy right now.

@epodroznik  
Yes her right side is less cheerful.

I like how well they captured her cheerful side in this picture.

OMG

What a dumb design.

@Joshua  
No, it’s another toy name because reasons.
 
Some make sense, given that selling Coco with her show name might infringe on the Chanel estate, but then you have dumb stuff like DARING DO DAZZLE.

Maud!! What have they done to you?!

Maud does not give a fyay.

She has a face like she wandered into a Grateful Dead concert and was accosted by hippies.

Huh, rock is her middle name.
 
I can’t tell if she is or isn’t thrilled about those flowers :o

I actually headcannon’d that second name before. So does that mean it’s canon now? Great. Another thing going to my list of canon headcanons.

Yeah, Hasbro has to stick extra words onto the ponies’ names, or alter them in other ways, to make the toys trademarkable.

-Daring Doo Dazzle

It’s like Diamond Dazzle Tiara; Hasbro uses a middle name to make the toys easier to trademark.

@Philosopher Stone  
I don’t think so, but we might hear it in Season 6.

Was that second name ever used before?

Why does german always sound so angry?
