    ABBS VI: Comment Exchange Revival

    blog

    well, it’s happened again! another very busy week in both the good and bad sense, which really squeezed out any time and energy i had for fandom things. i don’t want to say that i’m definitely pulling back on any plans, but i am more cognizant than ever what the tradeoffs are between what i’m trying to do here and what i’m trying to do with the rest of my life.

    it's a funny thing! this past week has been one of the most productive weeks in my life in some time, but all of that was in the non-fandom part of it. on the fandom side, i actually did the least that i have in more than a month? really makes me think.

Blog: Pie Sisters Full Names Original Idea Do Not Steal · 7:19am Jan 22nd, 2021

Ok, so we have the two canon and also two best Pie sisters:

Pinkie Pie > Pinkamena Diane Pie
Maud Pie > Maudileena Daisy Pie

But we need two more! So here they are:

Marble Pie > Marbaleena Delizabeth Pie
Limestone Pie > Limestonamith Delilah Pie

Posting mostly so I don't forget this later.

Gonna steal these. Thanks.

Delizabeth? Delicious! :)

They all sound pretty cool:)

Back in the misty before-times, when Maud wasn't a thing yet and we'd named Pinkie's family after the various Pac-Man ghosts, I had a fun little system in place. The mother was Susan Unity Pie. And the daughters, going from eldest to youngest were:

Pinkamena Diane Pie
Blinkastasia Tetra Pie
Inkantessa Octavia Pie

Yes, that Octavia. It was a common bit of fanon at the time that she and Marble were actually the same pony. History lesson aside, these are some nice full names.

I was wondering about the weird name for the Marble + Limestone group! Fascinating look into fandom history, thank you for it. Having only started watching the show late last summer, I missed out on a lot!

Huh. Why the difference from the pattern in Limestone's first name, if you don't mind me asking? Or am I misinterpreting what the pattern is?

it's because her name sounds really bad keeping to the same pattern, the reason i posted this blog was because i was so happy to find a solution

Hah, righto, then; thanks. :D
Does the new solution have some particular meaning you found, or was it just a case of finding something that sounded better?

oh it's just going by feel, "Limestonamith" makes me think of "Shulamith" which gives it an old-fashioned Biblical name feel, and "Delizabeth" is a bit of fun by extending the naming convention to silliness, and with Marble being last it's implied they just ran out of D- names

Ah, thanks!
