190+ Disney Character Names That'll Bring Back Those Magical Memories
For a lot of people, Disney movies and TV shows were an integral part of their childhood. But for others, Disney movies and TV shows have continued to be a big part of their adult lives, too. How many times have you sat down with your little one to watch 101 Dalmatians? Again. For the third time in the same week, even? Watching Disney movies over and over just comes with the territory of being a mom. But remember, we were the same way as kids ourselves. And, as a parent, is there anything better than showing your child your favorite childhood Disney flick for the first time? (You know, other than, like, getting more than four hours of sleep in a night or using the bathroom without someone barging in. But anyway…) Just reading Disney character names on the back of DVD sleeves is enough motivation to make you plan a full-blown nostalgic movie marathon.
The point is, these magical moments are for both of you. Everyone’s childhood is different. But if there is one thing kids growing up can depend on, it’s for the enchanting world of Disney to whisk us all away to the bottom of the sea, the old streets of London, or a faraway kingdom. Now it’s our turn to show our kids the animation and stories they will remember for the rest of their lives. But more importantly, it’s our turn to watch these movies with them. Again and again and again.
And not only do we have favorite movies or cartoons — you probably have a favorite character (or eight), too. Whether you personally identified with a character (looking at you, Ariel, when you sing “Part of Your World”), had a crush on them (who among us hasn’t had an intimate dream about that British fox from Robin Hood?), wished they were your friend (Belle seems adventurous and well-read, but we’d have to have a serious chat about Stockholm Syndrome), loved to hate them (Yzma is up to no good, but also hilarious), or empathize with them (Ursula, you were misunderstood and will always be our queen), at this point, these beloved characters feel like family. Here are over 190 Disney character names that’ll bring those magic memories flooding back. Who knows, you might be inspired enough to add one of these to your baby name list.
