I believe her original name was Ditsy Doo, but the name Derpy caught on with fans and eventually became canon for a brief time, before it was later changed to Muffin, also on account of the fans who'd taken an affinity to her liking muffins.

So ultimately I'd say call her what you want to call her haha. Most people call her Derpy, I personally prefer Ditsy Doo. Bubblecup is cute, too! I see the resemblance for sure.

I have opinions on that name and its origins that aren't TP-safe. I'll just say that I choose not to use what many consider to be an offensive term. The theory that her name might have been Bubblecup (had the eye "error" not blown up the way it did) makes the most sense to me since so many G3 names were recycled in G4 for background characters and blind bag releases.


Summertime is usually pony meet time, so we're taking it back 10 years to the 2011 Pony Fair exclusive for the pony of the day. I know we're all missing our pony friends and hope that we can see each other soon!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed the multiple names.it was confusing!
 
I've seen a photo of someone's loose Egyptian pony, and it was the first time I'd ever realized she had subtle orange shading. She is a fabulous pony.

The G3 art ponies were the best exclusives. It's sad that they didn't continue with them beyond 2011, but I understand the many reasons why.

Fluttershy is the pony of the day.

Where do you get these darling backgrounds?

Michaels and Jo-Ann. They're scrapbook paper/cardstock. Jo-Ann has a WAY better year-round holiday selection, but I've gotten cute ones at both places. I can't wait for October! :catpumpkin:

Beachberry is the pony of the day.
