Talk:Sweetie Drops/@comment-7345250-20150615201103

Okay, new argument.

Andrea Libman is first credited as Sweetie Drops in the Rainbow Rocks shorts. Is the character called by name therein? No, but that does not make the credits ambiguous. Rather, it means that the name "Sweetie Drops" has been given priority for longer than "Bon Bon." We've been using Twilight Sparkle over Princess Twilight Sparkle, even though she has been called the latter in all kinds of material in recent months, haven't we? "Sweetie Drops," unlike "Bon Bon," has a history of usage.

Furthermore, the character is called Sweetie Drops in first party merchandise. Hasbro's minifigures come to mind as the most significant example. Unless I am mistaken, the character has not been called Bon Bon even once in the company's toy line. Should that not count for something?

The latest credit roll notwithstanding, the show uses the name Sweetie Drops in accordance with all of this merchandise and with the RR shorts. I do not think we should forget all of that because of one line in the credits of the most recent episode. We didn't change "Appleloosa" to "Appleoosa," did we?

My stance is the same as before.
