The above is accurate 25% of the time, truthful 50% of the time, and facetious 100% of the time.

So maybe it is dependent on the suffix... is the suffix "-llyn" a variation (or origination) of the word "land"? In that case, we might simply call them "Epons".

Actually 'llyn' is Welsh for lake (so I hope you are all rolling those lls properly) :)

But given how much of a pain that ll is to say I kinda like Eponi but as in Epon-i not as in E-pony :p
I also like Eponlli (with the ll)

But there is, it turns out, a whole Wikipedia article about alternative names that the rest of the world calls us Brits so I guess it is up to the rest of the continent to find something that they can call us :)

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

I would think Eponllonians rings best.

since its pretty obvious their name is one stop from ponyland you should just call them bronies

Then they're British, not English, which are two different things.

We're only British when 'muricans are talking otherwise we're English, Irish, Welsh or ...though probably not for much longer because our northern brothers are mad Scottish. Generally people in the UK don't refer to themselves as British.

Funny, I've had English friends tell me otherwise constantly for about a decade now. 

How'd that English Empire go for you then?

Inside the UK yes, but outside it's better to say British. Saves so much hassle.

Plus, being a Englishman living in Wales calling yourself British makes live so much easier :P

Life is much easier without necromancers. Call us Eponians, however bad it may sound.
