So you need to name some ponies, for whatever reason? Maybe you just need some names for the background characters or you need to come up with a name for an OC, but you can't think of anything.
It might sound counter-intuitive, but the names of colors of cosmetics are really good for pony names. If you don't have any makeup lying around (which most male writers probably don't), go to Sephora.com and look up some stuff there. Or ask your wife/girlfriend/mom/sister/roommate/whoever. Trust me, it's really helpful and will save you a lot of headaches, especially if you just need Random Background Pony #4543 to be called something other than just Random Background Pony #4543.
