   Lavender, Tealya and Porfirio...
..have a sibling that needs a good home!
You see, the purple names sort of run in the family. All three males in this batch of orbs need purple names -- Lavender (a shade of purple) and Porfirio (meaning purple coloring) already have their names, but the last male needs one, too!
The name can either be a variation on a purple color (as their mother, Violette, got her name with a variation on violet), a shade of purple you particularly like (as Lavender was named), or something to do with purple in a general sense (as Porfirio got his name).
Please post your name choice below and once the contest is over, I'll randomize the winner from my favorites!
Remember that this pony is already a pre-determined male! And good luck~
Contest ends on September 14th!

My name suggestion is Tyrian, after the Tyrian purple.
The original color purple from which the name purple is derived, is the color of a dye extracted from a mollusk found on the shores of the city of Tyre in ancient Phoenicia that in classical antiquity became a symbol of royalty because only the very wealthy could afford it.

Thistle ((because thistles are both my favorite flower and color of purple.)) Taken from wikipediaQuote: Thistle is a pale purplish color resembling the thistle plant. The first recorded use of Thistle as a color name in English was in 1892.[22] The color thistle is associated with Scotland because the thistle is the national flower of Scotland and Scotland's highest state decoration is the Order of the Thistle.
