As far back as Generation 1, Hasbro would occasionally reuse a preexisting pony name for a new and unrelated pony later (this phenomenon is not to be confused with the Baby versions of adult ponies made in G1 and G2.) They have continued this tradition cross-generationally with some of the G3 to G4 conversions seeming to be more aware of keeping similar designs.
Cross-generational pony name recycling can be confusing to collectors familiar with only one generation, especially when the differences are striking; for example, a G3 Rarity is a pink pony while a G4 Rarity is white. This is a growing list of recycled pony names as well as seemingly recycled pony styles/themes.
Names are listed alphabetically, but each section starts from the earliest generation involved.

These five G3 Winter Ponies are all connected:
- In 2003, a pony called Mittens was released.
- In 2007, a pony called Jolly Lolly who shared Mittens's symbol was made.
- Also in 2007, a completely different pony called Mittens was released. Her symbol was borrowed from a 2004 pony, Snow'el.
- The third pony in the 2007 set was also called Snow'el, but was different from the 2004 version.
