[INTRODUCTION] Polka Party!, a Weird Al ponification.

Name of OC: Polka Party! (exclamation point optional)

Gender: Stallion

Kind: Earth Pony

Cutie Mark: Red accordion

Appearance: Long, brown, curly/wavy mane, white coat, brown eyes, brightly-colored Hawaiian shirt, glasses and a mustache

Main Talent(s): Accordion music, song parodies

Brief Backstory: Born in an elevator in Coltifornia on October 23rd, 1959. Having picked up the accordion at a very young age, Polka Party became a musical star very quickly, having released his first full length album at only 23 years old. In 2002, he moved to Manehattan, got married, and fathered a colt by the name of Cheese Sandwich.

Likes

  • Music
  • Food and drink
  • Rocky road ice cream

Dislikes

  • Sauerkraut
  • b@d gramm3r
  • His wife wearing those horseshoes.

Creation Notes: Basically, I got sick of Cheese Sandwich being seen as "pony Weird Al", so I decided to make my own ponified Weird Al seperate from Cheese Sandwich. I've always seen Cheese Sandwich as more of Weird Al's son, hence why I made Polka Party the father of Cheese Sandwich. He's white because of the song "White & Nerdy". He's named after the 1986 "Weird Al" Yankovic album "Polka Party!".

[DISCUSSION] Dom's Guide To Naming Your OCs

Pony names usually work best when they're 2 words, they usually tend to be related to the pony's design, cutie mark, or special talent, it's much more common (and from what I can tell) preffered that pony names are 2 words that are related to the Pony's abilities. For example, my OC, Melody Blast, is a sky blue Unicorn with a dark purple striped mane and tail. "Melody" comes from his interest in music and explosions. As well as his ability to autotune himself, and his ability to cause explosions with his voice.

The way I have names down is:

[Word related to character's prinary interest] [Word related to Characters secondary interest]

I try to avoid the first word being a word meant to be an adjective since it usually doesn't sound as good. Like for example I chose Melody instead of Melodic. The last name usually works with the first name to become a simplified description of something. Like how "A Blast of Melody" would become "Melody Blast" or "The Summit of a Mountain" could be come Mountain Summit

Though this is just my process of how I name my ponies and how I prefer ponies are named, but if you need help with names, I hope this helped!

[HELP] need a name

(my OC) is a unicorn with aquamarine fur, a shaggy electric blue mane, and a cutie mark of a bear paw, and like a bear he's mostly lazy but very protective of the things he cares about. He boasts impressive strength, rivaling some earth ponies, and will gladly use that strength to help others. His cutie mark related magic allows him to talk to animals, much like the element of kindness. [Edit] Resolved! After some thought, I decided on the name Gentle Paw

[HELP] cutie mark ideas

Hey all! I'm having trouble thinking of a cutie mark for my oc.

Her name is rouge rebel and she's a pegasus.

She's cynical about the world due to her past and has a hard time trusting others. She doesn't like other ponies and tends to be alone.

Any ideas?
