Ms Folly is pretty convincing when she wants to be. It's easy to succumb to her.

Tom Petty would agree, and it's a heart-breaker when it happens. Succumb to me, my darling...

"Once in a while!?" She could change her name to Poke or Pokey. Of course then she'd alter her fur color to yellow and make her tail all jaggety, which would result in licensing problems and balls, that would just be too much.
Or, orange with a black mane, but I doubt that Phix would want to go all green with a slanty head, although it would be appropriate with all the books around.

I think Nudge needs a new name. After the last couple of weeks, UpSideTheHeadWithAHotSkillet seems more appropriate, if harder to type up.

"Little Miss Clue-by-Four".

(Which put me in mind of Dash Rip Rock doing a little ditty called "Little Miss Take the Money and Run"...)

OK Gumby, it took me a while to recall that media reference, the '60s were a long time ago.

Oh, I think that phrasing is a very effective way for Nudge to be saying "Yes, Monica, I'm being sarcastic here." Nudge's facial expression says it, too.
Why, Dave!
