You are free to call Derpy whatever you like; there are lots of people right now who don't like that name and prefer Ditzy Doo. It's just that the wiki is supposed to cover official information, and that means it has to draw the line somewhere. There's a reason the navigation up top has a button for "Fan labor"; that is the place for anything concerning the fandom. Lyra has a page there, under her old name, which contains a link back to our Heartstrings page. All the ponies in this list can have pages there, with as many fan-names as people like. So if Derpy Hooves ever were to receive an official name, this wiki would reflect that -- and link to the Fan labor wiki, where information about "fanon" belongs.
