Description
I do use the word Alicorn myself, but after looking it up and finding out what the word means... why do we call Celestia and Luna that? Seems odd.Anyway, that's not actually important I just needed something for AJ and RD to discuss for three panels to get to my silly punchline :F
*edit*
after doing SUPER SERIOUS RESEARCH, I have discovered the word Alicorn, as used as a term for a winged unicorn, dates back to 1984! [link]

Headcanon: Pegasus quills and earthpony hooves are also made out of alicorn, and the term got applied to the Princesses because they have all the alicorn.

My dad went to Japan, and he meant to ask someone for a drink, but what he asked was "Will you drink some water for me?"

No. She knew what he meant. My mom and dad say that they're real good sports about that kind of thing.

Voice actor.
And I think Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy share one as well.

It has nothing to do with budgeting, I would assume. If a person has enough range to voice two different characters, I see no reason why they shouldn't be hired for two separate parts, instead of simply finding another person.
This sort of thing is fairly common in most things that require large amounts of voice acting.

It's pretty common for VA's to voice multiple people. I'm not sure it's really a budget concern, but fitting 20 people into a recording studio would be a pain 
For example, here is a list of characters that Dan Castellanata (Homer) voices, just in the Simpsons alone: [link] - the Simpsons certainly don't have budget concerns
