If you had to give each of the pillars nicknames, whether to help remember them better or just for fun, what names would you give them? Me personally, I would go with these names.

Starswirl - Pony Gandalf

Meadowbrook - Peacock mask

Somnambula - Egyptian pony who's name doesn't sound at all like a pony's name

Flash Magnus - Flying Spartan

Mistmane - No wing Celestia

Rockhoof - uhh....... Shovel Knight.

Those are my nicknames for them. What about yours?

I like their nicknames.

I wouldn't exactly say Starswirl is like Gandalf cause let's be frank, he doesn't have Gandalf's patience.

True. But I think calling him "Pony Wizard" wouldn't have been creative enough. And "Pony Merlin" didn't really sound right either to me.
