Envious 12 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 This is an official brand on "Xbox Live" and look. It's Dr Hooves not Whooves and that must mean he is named on the show. Here is the link: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/Dr-Hooves-Tee/00000008-fd83-62c1-c013-f64d413607d8?cid=search Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grepper 3,193 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Maybe his name was worded that way to avoid trademark infringement? Anyway, there are often minor spelling variations between some characters in the show and on licensed merchandise. This may be the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Yellow Diamond 925 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 This is an official brand on "Xbox Live" and look. It's Dr Hooves not Whooves and that must mean he is named on the show. Here is the link: http://marketplace.x...07d8?cid=search Am I right? In the credits of the MLP episode, "Slice of Life," he was acredited as "Doctor." And nothing more, nothing less, so as far as canon. "Doctor," is his name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyNamedEarl 1,332 July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 It'll probably be like derpy being renamed to something else. 1 Creator of MLP Ruined Vines and Recorder Sh*t Equestria's Biggest Hip-Hop Nerd Everyday is Leg Day!

SolyWack 482 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 (edited) Where can i find this t-shirt, or other similar ones? Is it in a game category or is it general or something? Edited July 10, 2015 by AppleJack_Wack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyan Neon 50 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 I must be the only one who likes "Ditzy Do", "Muffins" and "Minuette" more than the fandom names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin_Case001 4,908 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 I must be the only one who likes "Ditzy Do", "Muffins" and "Minuette" more than the fandom names Well, you're not the only one who like Minuette. I always called her that. I never cared for the name Colgate. Minuette is beautiful. Colgate is toothpaste. I've never seen Dr. Who, but I love Dr. Hooves, and I'll always call him that, whichever way you want to spell it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearbox10mm 794 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 I like Dr. Hooves just fine, they probably avoided adding the "W" to avoid any copyright issues. I actually thought Colgate was her given name, now that know what her real name is, I like Minuette better. I had to think about it for a second but a light bulb went off when I realized her cutie mark is an hourglass.(the same as Dr. Hooves coincidentally) I was like "Oh, minute! I get it.". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shenron00 366 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 (edited) This is news? The cards, credits, comics, and mobile game have referred to him as "Dr. Hooves". Heck, one of the producers even SAID that his name is Dr. Hooves. As for Time Turner, that's simply not his name anymore, maybe a nick-name now? At any rate, I think it'd be disrespectful not to call a character by their official name. What's that? Want proof of his name?

Thanks to WheatleyCore for the sig! BTW, yes, I do realize that's Carnage and not Shenron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time Shield 402 July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 I actually liked the name "Time Turner" when I first heard it, although I can see how it's possible that they just couldn't use it since it's something from Harry Potter (it's kind of like how you probably couldn't have a pony named Light Saber either).

"Doctor," is his name. So he is the Doctor! Like, the 14th one. How many doctors are there again? I've only seen episodes 1-10 of season 2.

Guest July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 (edited) I really don't like the show Doctor Who. I still refer to this character as Time Turner. I like doctor who but I prefer the name Time Turner as well, it just sounds better ya know? And it sounds like a more realistic pony name than Doctor Hooves.

That made me realize no one has mentioned how that sounds like a Harry Potter pony. That also made me realize how much better Dr. Hooves sounds to me. Time Turner makes me think of a bookish mare with a bushy mane and tail. If you don't know what I'm getting at, you're fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
