I thought about this a lot and decided to write an article about it. If you've noticed, most ponies have cute markings that explain their name. For example, when Lyra was born, they named her Lyra, and this name defines the future sweet mark. Because when Lyra got a little older, playing the lyre became her special talent. So how does this happen? Do their parents see the future? Not just Lyra's parents, but others as well. Let's start with Minuette, for example. Minuette means minute in Italian and the sweet sign of Minuette is an hourglass. How did Minuette's parents name her for her future sign? There's also Sunset and Moondancer. Except for Luna, of course. Luna clearly means "moon".
Derpy Hooves's is another matter. Cutie Mark doesn't reveal his name, but you can see Derpy's name in silly moves.
Ok, enough examples. Now it's time for the theories. Parents can use the future orb to see the future, but that would be ridiculous because little ponies always ask the big ones:
''What about my cute sign? Apple? Cat? ''
If the elders knew, they would answer. Maybe ponies take their names as an example and do something suitable for their name and earn the same signs as their names, or their names are born into them when their parents see them.
It's a mystery.

Dear Diary,
Today, I had a good adventure with my friends. The bad thing about it, though, was, somepony said "Let's go this way!" And I said "No! Let's go this way!" We were all confused and most of us didn't understand anypony, but at least I had a adventure!

Dear Diary,
Today, I went to go with my friends to complete a obstacle course that everypony in Ponyville had to go across. I got past it, but I didn't win the race. I wasn't in first place. I was in third place. But third wasn't last. Twelfth was, but I came in like it was first if there were twelve spots!

"I've ruined their friendship once before. I'd rather give up my own memories than let it happen again!"
"I'm sorry too. I may have stopped being mean, but a Great and Powerful friend helped me realize I still wasn't very nice to you. Everyone matters Wallflower. No matter how insignificant or invisible they feel."
"There's over a million books in here."
"Princess Celestia, the last time we saw each other, I was your snide little pupil who betrayed and abandoned you.... I mean that I come before you a changed pony, humbly asking for forgiveness, guidance, and knowledge."
"...Or I can just go, and you never have to see me again."

This small, crappy, chapter is all I got..

SEVERAL DAYS LATER:
"Do we really have to wear these?" Rover whispered, as it's revealed, Ganger is making them wear old hockey masks (like you would see on JASON VOORHEES).
"Yes.. Because there awesome" Ganger whispered, putting on his mask.
"But it's the middle of the night, Rarity will be asleep" Rover whispered back, revealing they've sneak into Rarity's house.
"Yeah.. And why are we even here?" Spot whispered.
"I told you.. Rarity may have some gold hidden around.. She likes making her dresses 'fancy" Ganger whispered back.
