A pony of mystery in the darkness. Or I forgot to take the lens cap off. (They/them is fine.)
Why is it so hard to spell Cadance's name right? While trying to save her brother's marriage and preserve Equestria, Twilight finds out the dark secret.
As an unfortunate side effect, Twilight's own name suffers irreparable damage.

.. What the actual fuck did you get high on to write this? Because no sane mind would ever do this otherwise.
And of course, the real problem with the name, is that Hasbro was never consistant on its spelling. They even said Cadance or Cadence would work as the right spelling.
Candance is just lazy as fuck writters who can't be bothered to edit the story for proper grammer.

It's for reasons of localisation. Her name is spelt 'Cadence' in Britain, but 'Cadance' in the US, although the original Italian word it derives from is spelt with an E.

Here I was under the impression that they changed it from Cadence to Cadance for copyright or trademark purposes.

Hmmm. In my opinion (and ear), 'Cadance' just sounds wrong. But maybe that comes with the territory of being a musician.
I can't help but feel Celestia is playing a very long, drawn out elaborate joke on them.
I kinda liked this, but it felt like it was building to a punchline that never came.

The confusion is twofold:
The "Cadence/Cadance" confusion comes from the fact that her full name has an E ("Mi Amore Cadenza"), but the official spelling of her shortened name has an A. Also, "cadence" is actually a word, referring to a particular vocal inflection (kinda odd, given she's the Princess of Love and not the Princess of Song or anything like that).
The misplaced N comes from the fact that "Candace" is a typical female name in English (see Phineas & Ferb), but "Cadance" isn't.

Same here. Hell, the punchline is actually there, it's just the delivery leading to it is... lukewarm, at best.
