Got me there. Anyways... The comics. I would indeed recommend picking up some if you don't mind the odd looks by people when you buy it. They're good, pretty well written, awesome artwork and just entertaining.

The Apple Family isn't called the Apple Family because that's their last name; the Apple Family is the Apple Family because the vast majority of the family has apple names, apple cutie marks, and usually apple-related talents. If "Apple" were the Apple Family's family name, you'd wind up with names like "Applejack Apple", "Apple Bloom Apple", "Apple Strudel Apple", and other such names which are unbearably repetitious for the names of an entire extended family. Pinkie's last name isn't "Pie", she just has three names.

I've mentioned it before, but one fic I read gave ponies surnames, and the Flim Flam brothers were called that because that's their surname. Flim Flam. As in, Flim Flim Flam and Flam Flim Flam.

So no. No surnames for the poni. It's too silly.

Link to the fic?

Some of the comics are enjoyable some less so. It's a bit of a mixed bag.

As long as they work together this is correct, in theory.

Of course ponies like people don't always work together.

True.

I would say that the Apples pretty much have a monopoly on all things apple in Equestria, considering their numbers and how widely spread they are.

The Flim Flam Brothers were simply challengers, and while they were worthy ones indeed, they still lost in the long run.
