The hidden meaning of Disney's Princess Names

11:55 by

Have you ever thought each of the Disney's Princess name have their own meaning which suits with their character ?

Pocahontas
The name Pocahontas is Algonquin and it means "she is playful." Totally suits her!




Anna (Frozen)
Anna means "grace" . The word "grace" has been used in their lyrics "fetchingly draped against the wall, the picture of sophisticated grace". Ironic right?




Ariel (Little Mermaid)
This little mermaid's name can mean two different things, either "lion" or "mischievous spirit." Seems true? In Spanish, it means god.



Belle (Beauty and the Beast)
Belle is of French decent and the name derives from the French word "beautiful." Indeed she is beautiful 💖




Cinderella
The name 'Cinderella' is also French and it comes from the word Cendrillon, which means "little ashes." Since Cinderella was responsible for "sweeping up the cinders," her first name totally makes sense!




Elsa (Frozen)
Elsa means "truth". Somehow the truth reveals after so many years she hid her magical secret. Hmm?



Jasmine (Aladdin)
Jasmine is the name of a flower in Persian

Mulan
Mulan in chinese means  magnolia blossom. Now you know why her father put a blossom at her hair?



Tiana (Princess and the Frog)
Tiana in Greek means princess. It reflects the title where she knows she will be a royal even she was not born into royalty.
