LunaShy 167 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 What are pricess' Celestia and Luna considered to be? In season 2 they break down the pony's into Pony's. Pegasi- pony with wings. and Unicorn- pony with horn and magic. So are they Unisi or Pegacorn or do they have there own name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Diamond 7,559 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 They're officially known as alicorns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Badges
Jadefire 2,796 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) There's no official name, but the fandom dubbed their species 'Alicorn', though 'Winged Unicorn' is sometimes used by those who object (because the alicorn is actually what the unicorn horn is called, so it doesn't technically fit as their species name).

Klopp 2,050 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 They are called Alicorns, it has not officially been mentioned in the show, but Lauren Faust has called them alicorns, as seen in the image below (Lauren Faust is *Fyre-Flye, in case you didn't know.)

Eenohay 318 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 They have always been alicorns to me, and to everyone. iIt just makes sense, Ali sounds like Ala, spanish for wing. Its like wingicorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SrFrog 924 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Apparently the term alicorn has been previously used on other works of fiction in the past, so it seems deeming that the term be used to describe Celestia/Luna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Badges

Its like wingicorn I just noticed that. If you didn't know, Allah is the Arabic word for god and used by Muslims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eenohay 318 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I just noticed that. If you didn't know, Allah is the Arabic word for god and used by Muslims. I know, but Ala being wing makes much more sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twi Rubix 726 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Oh, I though Alicorn was official. Hmm, Isn't it weird Celestia and Luna don't have their species name by the creators themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezynell 2,034 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I know, but Ala being wing makes much more sense I didn't even know that. So Alicorn would be unicorn with wings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet Tail 807 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 They are called Alicorns, it has not officially been mentioned in the show, but Lauren Faust has called them alicorns, as seen in the image below (Lauren Faust is *Fyre-Flye, in case you didn't know.) It really, really annoys me they're adding another alicorn. I'm with Lauren. If it was up to me, there would be only 2. If you just add another random alicorn that doesn't serve some major purpose, or isn't some kind of God, then being an alicorn isn't going to be the huge deal it used to be, which removes an awesome element from the show.
