If a unicorn is a horse with a horn, and a pegasus is a horse with wings, what is the name of a horse with a horn and wings? Please don't say pegacorn or unisus. I know there's an actual term for it.

Both or either Pegacorn and Unisus are correct.

1) "A unicorn is a horse with a horn and a pegasus is a horse with wings. Therefore a winged unicorn would be a horse with a horn and wings. A horned pegasus would then be a horse with wings and a horn. I would then say that they are both the same. But, if you were to consider the unicorns magic powers, the pegasus with a horn might not inherit these powers."

Awesome shading....and I absolutely LOVE the feathered feet!" Source: http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/art/t/w/tweidt/unicorn.jpg.html

Cerapter in Greek, Alicorn in Latin. People who use "Pegasus" (Greek) and "Unicorn" (Latin) together are a little silly. I don't know of a word for it that starts with M. The only M mythological animal I can think of is a Manticore, but that is VERY different.

... although the "KIRIN" looks like a black and gold horse with one horn, it has magical abilities and can conjure wings like a "Pegasus" to grow from it's sides, then fly.

A Unicorn with wings is called a Pterippus. Alicorn is the name of the horn upon the head of a unicorn. Pegacorn and Unisus are not even words to a Winged Unicorn in references or history on mythological creatures. Pterippus --> http://conmyth.wikia.com/wiki/Pterippus Pegasus --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus Unicorn --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicorn I know this myself cause the furry in me is mostly Pterippus. I am looking for other Pterippus's if you are looking for more too. Have a bad feeling I am the only one, just like the Last Unicorn felt in the story where she was looking for the rest of her kind.
