Not that you don't have a point, but Beaverton Beaverteeth was Season 3 which I guess supports the other point? (I have to assume its something like "Since Faust left, S3/4 have been off course in terms of naming")
Even then though, Season 3 and Season 4 still had names similar to the original naming scheme that they brought up. Lightning Dust, Prim Hemline, Silver Shill, and Trenderhoof all feel like names in the older naming scheme. When I think of those, I don't really get the sense that they are really forgetting anything.

He's already coming up with his own theories on characters and story progression, and it is absolutely adorable. I get super excited every evening when it's "Pony-time".

The best part is that when you finish S4, you'll already have S5 ready to go.
I recently just finished going through the show with one of my newer friends, so when I tell him "Man the wait for Season 5 has been soooo long", he replies that he only had to wait a month until the new season started.
