Queen Twilight

[Steve Piranha 29,430]

I was playing the Gameloft pony game, and to my surprise, time-displaced grownup Sweetie called Twilight as “Queen Twilight”. I personally like the idea of Twilight being queen instead of princess. First, to tell her apart of her cuter and smaller alicorn form was known as princess. Second, to say nope to the demonization of queens in children shows, and also aligning to one of Faust’s rejected ideas

 

ALL HAIL QUEEN TWILIGHT

I already consider Twilight Sparkle a Queen so, my answer is "Yes.". 

[cuteycindyhoney 13,309]

I welcome Twilight as my Queen!

[Will Guide 21,362]

Whatever title suits her.

I feel there should be a third poll option. "Other (post why)"

Come on, we already know this rule. Princesses are good, Queens are evil.

Does that rule still apply in this post-Frozen world?

Frozen is an exception to the rule, partially for the sake of it, and it also confirms that the rule has been existed.

Of course I said it because it doesn't make sense if you stop and try to think why, maybe it's just a deep human subconscious preference of archetypes. We know how fairy tales work.

And yet if they had crowned Twilight Queen, I doubt anyone would have minded.

Yeah. But they could question why Celestia and Luna were princesses while Twilight is a Queen.

A new age - and one ruler rather than two.

Deciding who should be called as a princess and a queen in a show might not work like that. Cadance and Shining armor are not called kings and queens, but as a princess and a prince (I can't recall when Shining Armor was referred to a prince btw). Technically it wouldn't work like that because they are rulers of an empire, but it is just a better sounding name than Queen Cadance and King Shining Armor, or King Sombra instead of Prince Sombra. (maybe they are like brother and sister figures than mother/father figures in the show, and King Sombra is a tyrant, not a rival.) Queen Novo sounds better than Princess Novo, and partially because of her role as a mother of Princess Skystar.

Simply put, they work more like names than accurate positions.

I'll follow the law and order of the land even if I'm not keen on the outcome. All hail Queen Twilight.

But also,

Nah, I don't consider the game to be entirely canonical. I'll stay with princess.

[Kadeda 178]

Queen, Ruler, Overlord, God... I mean... if she's not then who is?

[Steve Piranha 29,430]

Grownup Apple Bloom in contrast, called her Princess. I still like Queen more 

[Jane 123]

I don't know why someone should call her that, if nobody ever called Celestia 'queen' why to Twilight?
