The reason for the inconsistency of Cadance's name is because the earliest sources (e.g. The Hub promotions) spelled her name "Cadence" - Hasbro had not yet released anything with her name in written form, so it was presumed to be spelled like the word. This causes bronies to this day to mistakenly presume her name is spelled "Cadence".

As soon as Hasbro began putting out canonical material, her name has consistently been spelled "Cadance", which is also the spelling that has been trademarked, making that her correct name.
