    Well this stinks....

    Anyways... -sigh- Apparently me, my dad, and my brother have tested positive for COVID-19. :/

    Thankfully we don't have any of the symptoms for it (mainly I still have a cough to deal with while my brother has a sore throat.). So we have to deal with 5 days of quarantining at home and then 5 days to wear a mask (or face shield in our cases).

    Then we should be back to normal by then.

Why Coco Pommel's Name shouldn't be renamed to Miss Pommel · 4:49pm Dec 10th, 2018

Here's why:


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coco_(given_name)


You see, it's a GIVEN name to people, not just a name for one person only! :twilightangry2:



Hasbro has to know that it is a mistake on their part for that, which is why we haven't seen Coco Pommel lately :/

That unfortunately doesn't matter. Legal stuff has them scared.

Well we have fanfiction

4979133
It's a GIVEN NAME!

4979133
And besides...... Coco Pommel's design and appearance has nothing, I repeat, NOTHNG to do with Coco Chanel!

4979140
Tell that to the lawyers from Chanel. :facehoof:

4979142
I highly doubt Coco Chanel would still have Lawyers after her Death long ago :/

4979143
There's the worldwide fashion company that she founded, and still bears her name. They have lawyers. Lots of them, I'm sure.

4979144
So?!! Take a look the Disney Pixar Film named Coco! Did the Fashion company even complained to Disney and Pixar about using the word Coco in the name?!!


Again: IT'S A GIVEN NAME TO PEOPLE!

4979145
Maybe because character in the Disney/Pixar movie was a Mexican boy with no major connection to the fashion industry?

Yes, Coco IS a given name. I'm not disputing that at all.

It sucks that this whole renaming bit is going on. It really does. But the fact is that what started as a cute reference - a pony in the fashion business with the name Coco Pommel that sounded like Coco Chanel - has been disputed by legal crap, and that Hasbro as a big corporation in charge of the cartoon doesn't want that grief, and thus they changed the name. :facehoof:

It's just a really bad break. That's all.

4979147
And that leaves me to this part:

Coco Pommel (The Pony) and Coco Chanel (The Person) Here's the picture for the difference of the two:

They look NOTHING alike in terms of Personality! >:/

4979148
Oh for God's sake. I KNOW they don't look or act alike. That's not the thing being disputed here.

All of this crap is over the name. That's what it's over. You can say (and I totally agree) that the characters look or act nothing alike, but it's not over their appearance. It's because of the fact that the name sounds similar and that Chanel's lawyers have a bug up their ass about it.

I don't know what else I can say. It sucks, the change is a stupid and arbitrary piece of crap, but we can't do anything about it, really.

If it bothers you that much, just keep referring to her as Coco Pommel in your own stories.

4979152
Alrighty then......

4986575
IKR? Seriously though, Coco isn't just limited to Coco Chanel. It's a given name for people though >:/

4986579
yep.

I do want her name back to the way it was.

4986581
Yeah, Coco deserves at least that much!

4986583
Indeed, and for the Coco Chanel company to learn their lesson about renaming a character >:(

Her name is, according to MLP Wiki at least, a nod to Coco Chanel, hence the legal issues.

5063690
I know that.... but seriously though: the two aren't even alike in terms of personality :/

5063699
You know what happens when lawyers hear the sound of coin. As John Hammond puts it in Jurassic Park;

The only one defending me is the bloodsucking lawyer!
