Hows about ‘Lucky Guess’?

@IpersonallylikeCupcakes
 
Well, that escalated quickly.
 
Anyway, names, names, names…I’ve had the name “Spell Check” under wraps for a while for use on an OC with grammar Nazi tendencies; doesn’t exactly scream “brilliance” but it’s something.
 
It’s actually kind of hard to come up with names that aren’t for “dumb” ponies, now that I’m actually thinking about it. I mean, there’s so many comedic chances with non-intelligence (I have a failing magician pony OC named One Trick), but not so much with brilliance.
 
The only things coming up for me in my head are Sage (a profoundly wise person; a person famed for wisdom.), Spell Check, and Artful, none of which are particularly good. Just throwing them out there.

The Schizo’s name is Simply Brilliant.
 
He’s about to get adopted in the prologue by currently nameless parents.

Being a schizo the name trivial pursuit certainly can describe how it feels.
 
Also I can’t see how someone schizophrenic could have any name with clarity in it.

If you say so. It’s your story.

@Elric of Melnipony  
See, Trivial Pursuit is a game of smartness, yes, but to give that name to a pony, considering names usually coincide with their talent, makes it sound like he’s doomed to follow things which he will ultimately fail in.
 
Makes a good idea for a comedic story though.

I like “Teacher’s Pet”, but I might be the only one.

@IpersonallylikeCupcakes  
I wouldn’t have made the connection if you hadn’t said that a trivia competition makes you think of failure. You can still use the other name I posted if you want, though.

@Elric of Melnipony
 
Thanks for reminding me of my limited intelligence.
 
Asshole.

@IpersonallylikeCupcakes  
You’ve obviously never whipped anybody’s ass at a game of Trivial Pursuit, then…

@Rainbow Dash  
I like it, I’ll use it if someone doesn’t come up with something better.
 
 
@Elric of Melnipony  
That doesn’t really have to do with intelligence, it sounds like somepony who’s doomed to fail.
 
 
@Background Pony  
Needs a last name. Just does.
 
 
@sirvancelot  
If you say so.
 
Be warned, it’s kind of a shitty prologue

Two, like a Jekyll and Hyde thing?

Here’s another one: Pop Quiz.

There’s no problem with posting the link. It might help people come up with names.

Eureka?

Depends on how cute you want to be. I mean, you could always name one “Trivial Pursuit” after the game…

Uhhh… Vivid Clarity?

hmm
