Disney Names

I know a couple of people who have names used in Disney movies, so...
[Poll]

SS: Isn't Belle the obvious winner?!

My 4 year old still can't say Aurora correctly. She'd probably be fairly introverted out of embarrassment if I had named her that!

Truth. Though I voted for Aurora. It's a close second for me.

I guess I wanted to offer up something different than the obvious to make it more interesting.

I used to really want a daughter to name Belle.  But now all that Isabella stuff is way too over the top for me.

I would totally do Aurora and it's on the list.

Guilty pleasure would have to be Ariel.

I like Jasmine and Ariel. I would have to pick Ariel for a child because I already named one of my cats Jasmine. I had a Disney thing going on when I named them... Jasmine's sister is Nala LOL!

I really like the name Aurora.  I have a friend who just named her baby that and she calls her Rory- I think that's super cute!

The names Disney uses for their animated heroines are usually WAY too much frill and fuss for my taste, but if I absolutely had to pick one, I'd go with Alice (in Wonderland), Daisy (Duck), or Jane (from Tarzan).

TrudyCampbell

I voted Aurora but I loveee Belle. I'm dying to use Belle as a middle name.

Belle is my guilty pleasure name!  My daughter will probably be called Mila Belle by me (my dh will probably not) and I can't wait for her to get all of her Belle Disney swag.  

MrsTBird

It's looking like I'm in a minority, but I voted Esmaralda. I think Esme would be an adorable nn! My sister always wanted to be Pocahontas - she used to walk around the house flipping her around around and singing 'The Colors of the Wind'!

My mom has a friends whose daughters are Jasmine and Aurora.  Jasmine actually predates the Aladdin movie.  Aurora goes by Rory.  I think they're both cute.

Jasmine, Jasmin, Jazmin and Jazmeen are all super popular names for the 14-18 year olds around here,

I've always loved Aurora.  Megara is a guilty pleasure of mine.

I loooove Evangeline (Princess and the Frog) and Merida (Brave)

I love both of these too. Evangeline was on my short list by it just didn't flow right with our last name. I voted Aurora but growing up I always adored Belle.

I'm really, really surprised no one shares my love of Megara!  What a cute name!!

I, too, once planned on naming my daughter Belle...but alas, too many Isabellas.

Ariel granted an old friend named his son that, poor kiddo!

Ariel is a Hebrew boy's name, I'm pretty sure. It has a much older history as a male name than a female one- remember Shakespeare's The Tempest?

That said, I voted Ariel :P. I like Aurora too! 

GoneCountryYall

I LOVE Aurora and want that name, but it's to much of a tongue twister for me. Having to say your child's name a million times a day I would be exhausted and would the child be able to pronounce it? And for Giselle use your imagination for the Gis part..I wanted this name too till I came across that.

How about Snowhite and Cinderella? Dh wanted us to name DD Snowhite after MIL. in our country Snowhite is a legit name (it's spelled differently but translates to Snowhite), given that I don't like the name, nor do I like Snowhite that much, and DD was born in July (nothing snow related or even close) thank God we agreed to respect MIL's name in a different way I voted Ariel of this list but I'd def chose Bella if it was on the list.

SS: I like Alice. If I get to use it, it would be a MN. It's a family name.

I don't like any of the Disney princess names. Aurora is pretty, but definitely nms. The rest...meh. I do like the nn Meg, so Megara isn't so bad, but she's not my favorite Disney character.

DS is named after a tv character (DH's choice), and I'm hoping to avoid any other entertainment-inspired names.

I choose Kiera from Lion King Two!

sweetpea2003

I love Aurora.  I also like Evangeline (Princess and the Frog). 

I know a few toddlers named Aurora and none of them are ruined socially because of their name.  My DD is Katherine (Kate) and it sounds like "Kaffrin" when she says it right now.  I don't think her self esteem has been impacted at all.

Giselle is the only one I would even consider! 

I don't get the appeal of Aurora. I think it has a really harsh pronunciation.

This + I love the NN Ari for a boy.

We loved Evangeline too, even before we made the Disney connection! DH is from southwest Louisiana and it is a historical name for that area.  Of course, with Belle as the middle name, we now have a double-Disney name for our LO!  

Giselle was on my list of names for the longest time, even before the movie, but DH didn't like it as much.  

SLHurst11

Marie from The Aristocats, Bianca from The Rescuers, or Colette from Ratatouille

kerbear135

We considered Ariella (our last name made it where we needed more syllables than Ariel) but I also love Tiana, from Princess and the Frog..and Jaidis, the White Witch from Chronicles of Narnia (Disney made the move so you could argue it was somewhat of a Disney Name)

gidgetgirl08

I would choose Anya/Anastasia

from your list, probably Aurora
