Set factsZelda's Epona is a chestnut mare with a white mane. She first appears in Ocarina of Time (1998), and she returns in Majora's Mask, The Minish Cap, Twilight Princess, Breath of the Wild, and Tears of the Kingdom. Zelda Wiki pronounces the name ee-POH-nuh. The goddess is older: a Gallo-Roman protector of horses, ponies, and motherhood, with a festival on 18 December.
Other games use the name for a Star Stable region, a horse sold in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a villager in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and a RimWorld mod race. A 2027 LEGO set, number 77094, is also named for Link and Epona. Hotels, a legal product, and an anime character share the spelling and are listed on the other-names page.
In Zelda she is Link’s horse. Outside the games she is a Celtic and Roman horse goddess. Several other games and products reuse the name.
Yes. Zelda Wiki describes her with she/her, and the goddess Epona is female. Kingdom Come models every horse with a shared male mesh, which the KCD page explains separately.
Zelda Wiki gives /iˈpoʊ.nə/, said ee-POH-nuh. That is the pronunciation players use. Classical Latin stress can differ.
