The name something has when being rung up on a register (and therefore the name shown on the receipt) is not necessarily the official name of the product. It's put into the register system by someone at the store company. The figure's not officially called Derpy, someone at Hot Topic called it that and put it into the system as that. And considering it's Hot Topic, of course they would do that since like all of their MLP sales are to bronies.
