No you're not.
Your name was taken by a different Pony that existed hundreds of years before you. Sooo... You're actually not canon... |

Why "deleteme"? |
| gillnavisingh #586440 9 months ago |
At least Pipsqueak had tons of potential for a story over the series, because he, unlike Littlepip is based off of Charles Dickens' "Great Expectations". |

Zecora called me Littlepip. |
| HeinousActsZX #586525 9 months ago |
Pipsqueak is the new best pony. |

^ she was referring to your height. |
| Maeni #586535 9 months ago |
Ahahaha.
I loved the fact that the name was used, even specifically as "Little Pip". But of course that doesn't make Littlepip canon at all. It's just a funny coincidence of names for fans to fangasm over. Nothing else to it, but it's still awesome. Besides, I kinda liked Pipsqueak the Pirate :D |

I table-flipped when Zecora said that.
Because I KNEW this was going to happen, and I LOVE Fallout: Equestria |

ya'll nickers kill me with that "it was just a Great Expectations reference, GOSH" bullshit lol |

Although it most possibly was nothing more than that, I'm afraid.
Thiessen admitted that studio's work schedule is so tight, they have little time to even consider reading any fanfics. |

People do know that legally the MLP team can't read fanfics? Meaning no Fallout Equestria. |
| Anonymous #587117 9 months ago |
Thank you Anon943. They can't read fan-fics because the potential is too great to have it influence them. It can lead to a bunch of legal issues. |
| MyCutieMarkisaGUN #587343 9 months ago |
^^^ - right.
Just like how people aren't allowed to drink on the job. |
| Kkat #589367 9 months ago |
uh.... no.
You're not canon, Littlepip. Sorry. Your name was mentioned in what was definitely a Charles Dickens reference that may or may not have /also/ been a brony fanon shout-out. Not the same thing as canon. (I severely doubt any of the writers read fan-fics. It's the same reason I don't read FOE side stories and won't until FOE itself is completed. OTOH, the idea that the writers who are clearly paying attention to the brony community have never heard of Littlepip seems just as unlikely.) BTW: Loved little Pipsqueak the Pirate |

From the prologue:
Oh, my name is LittlePip. Go figure. I was given the name because I was the youngest and the smallest, and even my mother had the good sense not to call me “Pipsqueak.” Yeah, about a 99.99% chance of it being a complete coincidence. Still loved it though. |
| Martingale #591406 9 months ago |
Well... not a complete coincidence.
Chances are Fallout Equestria's Littlepip name was equally inspired by Fallout's PipBoy and a play on Dickens' Pip. They correlate, if you will. They are both independent of each other, but drawing from the same sources. |
