Plasmastorm X-15 162 April 17, 2012 Share April 17, 2012 (edited) If anyone noticed. During the "Cutie Mark Chronicles" episode when Pinkie explained her story, It mentioned her family. Pinkie - Main Inky - 1st sister Blinky - 2nd sister Clyde - Father Sue - Mother In Pac-Man. The Ghost`s names were also Red Ghost - Blinky Pink Ghost - Pinky (Pinkie) Cyan Ghost - Inky Orange Ghost - Sue/Clyde (They changed the name) So from what it seems. Pinkie`s family are related tp the Ghosts from Pac-Man XD I found this out cause at my library when my friend was playing Pac-Man on facebook & he was talking about the ghost`s names. When i saw them they made me think of Pinkie`s family. Edited April 17, 2012 by PlasmastormX-15 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slendermane 477 April 18, 2012 Share April 18, 2012 The fans named her family. Since it is Pinkie's family, they tried to think of names that had to do with the name Pinkie. Someone realized that one of the Pac Man ghosts were named Pinkie, and Pinkie's sisters were grey, so they went with it. That has been some of the most popular fanon names. However, some claim that Inkie is Octavia, and they have named the other sister Bellamina instead of Blinkie. Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlutterDerpy582 89 April 18, 2012 Share April 18, 2012 Hmm... Never noticed that before, however I don't doubt it is a reference to Pac-Man. I wouldn't say they are related though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twi Rubix 726 April 18, 2012 Share April 18, 2012 Hmm, never thought of that! But of course, the family names aren't canon, so just a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tteok 16 April 18, 2012 Share April 18, 2012 Awesome discovery! Methinks the show staff were around kid age back when Pac-Man first came out, so I'm not too surprised. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest April 18, 2012 Share April 18, 2012 I think Slendermane is right, the namings were fan-based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinRarity 1,605 April 19, 2012 Share April 19, 2012 I thought that people came up with the names for Pinkie's family because of Pac-Man. Follow my blog! ~The Mind of Sally - Experiences, Opinions, Musings~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbolt 14 April 20, 2012 Share April 20, 2012 Man! I remember when you could still play pac-man in the arcade... but this arcade had a lot of old games (pac-man in 2001? seriously?)... Sooooooo... yeah. Anyway, they released later versions of the game for Nintendo 64, Game Cube and Nintendo DS... and those ghosts were in ALL of them. Maybe it's the Pie family's job to appear in Pac-Man games so they make some extra spending money? Smile and things will turn out fine. If it doesn't, then smile anyway and show them you're the bigger Pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swit Swat 536 April 20, 2012 Share April 20, 2012 Strange indeed... Well, Pinkie's family lived in a depressing gray world... and ghosts also live in a similar world... so I think it actually makes sense. Don Mec.

Starbolt 14 April 20, 2012 Share April 20, 2012 Why am I suddenly now picturing Pinkie Pie running through Ponyville shouting Wakka-wakka-wakka... ? Smile and things will turn out fine.

Fox 5,330 April 20, 2012 Share April 20, 2012 Those writers are sneaky,,,, aren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinRarity 1,605 April 20, 2012 Share April 20, 2012 You guys. The writers didn't name any of Pinkie Pie's family members. Inkie and Blinkie are fanon names for Pinkie's sisters. Clyde and Sue are fanon names for Pinkie's parents. FANON. The writers of the actual show didn't name them. However, someone decided to name Pinkie's family. So they took the names of the ghosts from Pac-Man, gave them to her family, and randomly added Sue so that her mom would have a name, too. The writers didn't name her family. If you want proof, go watch The Cutie Mark Chronicles and listen to the lack of Pinkie naming her family members. If my version of the story is somehow incorrect, however, or if I am missing any details, feel free to speak up. But this is how I learned the story and it seems to make sense.
