While some aspects could use some work I dig it, it certainly has potential. The names or nicknames are not particularly stand out ones but we really don’t have a lot of details so it might turn out better.

Those tv commercials marketing budget not-mlp pony related merch hoping dumb kids and uninterested parents wouldn’t notice the difference between them and hasbro’s stuff as long as they slapped the word pony on their toys.

Sunny may be short for Sunny Daze (Hasbro renewed its trademark in 2019) and Izzy may be short for either Whizzer, Dizzy Lizzy or another name (haven’t checked the trademarks on the two names yet). I do remember one of the leaked emails from December 2017 saying that the main characters could have nicknames.
@Midnight Ruby
The only one that is really out of the ordinary is Izzy. Sunny is at least part of ponies names since at least G1 and Pipp is part of a name from G4, Pipsqueak, and of LittlePip from Fallout Equestria one of the biggest fan creations in the whole of G4. While Izzy is somewhat out of the ordinary its not that out there.

While normally I do agree with this, in this case it’s warranted.
These names just do not fit a show about Magical Ponies.
They are far too human in nature.
The only thing that bugs me about that is they supposedly still in Equestria. So they do they come from the “village with the weird names” or something?
