Sweetie Drops remained unnamed in the television show until season 5's "Slice of Life", however the name "Bon Bon" and "Sweetie Drops" were used interchangeably in toys and merchandise. Notably, "Sweetie Drops" tended to be used more often in more general releases, while "Bon Bon" was used in more 'specific' products aimed at the fandom, such as trading cards rather than broad consumers.
In the episode, "Slice of Life", Sweetie Drops said that Bon Bon was her code name, while Sweetie Drops was her civilian name, was listed under the name 'Bon Bon' in the credits, her first time either of her names were referenced in the television show.
