I need some ideas for a last name for Icarus, Fluttershy, and Applejack.
Icarus is the most important, though, and I need some good suggestions.
Also, chatper 6 is at 4,700 words so far, and seems to be on track for release date of Friday or Saturday. (Editors, start looking over what I've got.)
That is all for now. Winning Last Name submitters will get a sneak peek of either this chapter, or the next one.
AVANTE!

Fluttershy Bloodsplatter Hurricane.
I'm confused as to the necessity of a last name?
Jeep, Creep, and Goldfarb.

Agree, they're ponies; they don't need a last name.
Applejack's last name is already Apple. Remember, the Apple family?
Oh, that's right. You're not actually writing about My Little Pony. My mistake.
Icarus Grueler?
Fluttershy Breeze?
Applejack Daniels?
910861 As good as this is, it's not really something quite... acceptable. Maybe in another story.
910862 Because I find the idea of a lack of last name to be... Incongruous with reality. I have decided that they will have last names, and that's good enough.
910866 Pretty good, but not quite right.
910871 See above.
910872 Applejack Apple is... stupid. I want something a bit better. Also, it is humanized MLP. And, if you don't like it, then don't read it. Because, if I'm reading the tone correctly, your comment reeks of disdain.
910891 Not so much. Thanks for the attempt, though.
Icarus Archimedes. Apple Jersey Lightning. Fluttershy Whisperwind.
For Icarus, how about Icarus Flügel (apparently that is german for wings)
For Fluttershy, Fluttershy Sicuro (apparently safe in italian)
For Applejack, Applejack Brûler (French for burn)

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know it was humanized. Well, in my opinion then "Fluttershy" isn't very human, unless her parents were stark-raving mad hippies. Applejack is a bit easier; Jackie (or Jacqueline) Hattfield.
910919
Nah, 'tis a joke.
While I certainly don't enjoy humanized stories (or AU, for that matter), I have no problem with them or those that enjoy them.
I mean, we all like a show for little girls, so to get after someone for being 'weird' seems a little hypocritical.
910919Forgot it was humanized
. Oh well; I'm sure something will pop up
!
Fluttershy Soulstare, because she can stare into your soul and make it freeze like ice!
Applejack Adams?
Fluttershy Belle/Blythe/Sparrow/Rose/Freeman/Dove/Cassel?
And...Icarus........Daedalus (Greek Icarus' father's name)/Aeneas? Do something Greek again...definitely.
~Hope It Helped!
PinkiePieAndI
Last name ideas(just becuase they sound cool, no hidden meaning)
Icarus Dregoul
Applejack Crestant
Fluttershy Vesrah
Well, Applejack's cannon last name is Apple. Kidd, McPherson, McCoy, Daniels, Rider, Trapper, Wilder, Maybe even something like Matherson? I don't know, I'm awful at names.
Fluttershy is a toughie, Perhaps her name could be split down the middle? Flutter Shy. Or maybe try something like Lepidoptera, sounds almost regal.
Icarus stems from Greek mythology. Maybe, Ferox. It's Latin for spirited, untamable, courageous, wild, warlike, and dauntless, I think it fits.
Icarus Steel.
Fluttershy Shine.
Applejack Watson.
Hope this helps or inspires someone!
Icarus sunshimmer
Fluttershy Morningguard (Fits my head cannon that her mom is a badass royal guard)
Applejack no ideas.
Applejack Daniels MUTHA BUCKAS!
Icarus Steelshot
Fluttershy...I got nothing. honestly I always imagined their names as they are, and never actually having last names to begin with. I mean, thats how those greek names like Icarus and Daedalus and Archemidies worked, no real sir name.
Fluttershy Braveheart
Icarus DaVinci ?(both father and son are inventors so why the hell not?) Also, Icarus Skyseeker but that may or may not be influenced by my recent marathon of Clones wars...
Fluttershy, I think a family name that start with the letter ''W'' could be good so i'll say: Fluttershy Whitehaven
And for Applejack... I have Dalton that come to mind for no reason. Maybe Greenwood or Waggoner could fit too.
Fluttershy Artemis or Chloris
Applejack Eski
Icarus Shu
Somewhere along the line, I ended up thinking Fluttershy's last name was Posey... don't think I got that from canon though.
*shrug*
Icarus "DAFUQ" Johnson
Applejack Cider
Fluttershy Ghostmount
I really am not good at names.
Fluttershy should be her last name. Like 'Betheny Fluttershy', or something.
Applejack Bucksmith
Fluttershy Sunshine
Artemis Enicolios
Icarus Enicolios
911438 Icarus "DAFUQ" Johnson
Ircaus Ovar Louvre
Fluttershy Butterscotch
Applejack A. Draper
911600 What? I'm not good with names. The "DAFUQ" was posted because I have no idea DAFUQ you're talking about when you say Icarus! I can't read a hundred stories in two hours! SCREW YOU LIBRARY!
Hmm...did Icarus and Daedalus have a last name in the old Greek myths? If they did, use that.
But here's my suggestions:
Icarus Gredenko (Because 24 is awesome.)
Fluttershy Marigold (Because...just because.)
Applejack Lemare (Because Les Misérables is awesome.)
Let's say I never had time to look at a chapter, and I did edits to it after it was published.
Would you be willing to put the new chapter in with the new edits?
If you don't know how to do that, it's really simple.
912361 Yes. I said that I'd be willing to do that. And I do know how it's done. I ain't a dumb-dumb poopoo head, you know. I am a wise and educated man.
913242
You'd be surprised how many people on this site don't know how to do that, so I just wanted to make sure.
913257 Well, you needn't worry, clearly. Still, I have to, mockingly, ask: When, pray tell, will I be seeing these prophesied edits?
911438 I like it!
913668 Everyone should!
