Tag: Rule 63

scystorm asked: Red Gala is my favorite R63 name for Mac. The ones like "Big Macina" bug me SO FUCKING MUCH. (Big Melrose is okay though)

ambris-waifu-hoard:

I like Melrose because it shortens to “Mel” easily. Big Mac’s full name is Big Macintosh, so it only makes sense that his R63 counterpart would have a short and snappy nickname as well.

Before I continue, I want to point this out:
scystorm said: Indeed. At least you looked up good apple names instead of just going “Big Macina lol”

Hey, I don't want to gloat, but Ambris didn't look it up himself. -_-

"Red Gala" isn't a good name since it's already taken. From the Friendship is Magic wiki on Wikia: "Applejack's extended family is introduced as 'The Apple family' in the episode 'Friendship is Magic, part 1,' when Applejack invites Twilight Sparkle and Spike to brunch. Applejack sounds off the following ponies: Apple Fritter, Apple Bumpkin, Red Gala, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Caramel Apple, Apple Strudel, Apple Tart, Baked Apples, Apple Brioche, Apple Cinnamon Crisp, Big McIntosh, Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith." Sorry.

I've never actually heard of a "Red Gala" apple before, so I did some digging. According to Wikipedia there are at least two different types of apples called "Red Gala," both derived from the regular [?] Gala apple.

I don't normally dabble in Rule 63 names, but when I do, I'm sticking with Big Melrose.

I wanted this to be a quick doodle.. hmm.

  • Rule 63? Check.
  • Big Macintosh x Shining Armor? Check.

Yep, this is pretty weird.

Any names for this ship? How about Rule 63 names?

I’m pretty sure thier R63 names are Big Macina and Gleaming Shield respectively.

So…Big Shield? XD

Probably more like GleaMac

Wouldn’t “Macina” be pronounced “ma-SEE-na”, not “ma-KEE-na”, though? According to Wikipedia, the name refers to a ninteenth-century African empire, and the alternative spelling “Masina” supports the “s” pronunciation.

I think that Big Mac’s R63 name should be the name of a variety of apple. Big Melrose?
