Great name for a horse. Don't name a human Epona.

I thought it was a version of "pony" when I saw it in Ocarina of Time, but I respect it a lot more now that I know where it comes from. Very nice name.

This is very nice unique and unusual name.

Just so everyone knows, this name has absolutely nothing to do with the name Eponine. Eponine is French and Epona is Celtic. I could be wrong; I’m not sure if Victor Hugo really liked the name Epona and just made up a French version for a character. To the best of my knowledge, though, the names are not related.

I love names from mythology. Sure, it reminds some people of a video game, but really it's a nice name.

Epona isn't only named in Zelda. It existed far before in various games and anime. In fact, its first n64 appearance is from a game called Quest 64, where the character was an elderly woman with ridiculous long hair... like a mane.

All I can think of is Epona's Song from the Zelda games playing in my head. This is a nice name for a horse, but not a person.

Although I don't think it's a particularly good name for a person in this day and age, it still remains one of my favorites due in part to my love of horses, and also because it sounds quite lovely.

I think this is a good name if you're a horse, especially if you're a horse from a video game. I would not name a person this.

I played too much Zelda as a child and that is the main reason I love this name.

It's pronouunced "e-PO-na", not "Ee-po-na". Yes, this name seems likely to have been the origin of the name "Eponine".
