![]() *Edit: Changed from Anderson to Andersen throughout, because I realized that I was spelling his name wrong.silly me! =p From Quiz: Who Inspired this Girl?īernard from "The Rescuers" has triskaidekaphobia, which is a fear of the number 13. Marina was actually a name given to a different version of Andersen's mermaid, a blonde-haired version from a Japanese film released in 1975.Īquafina is the name for a brand of bottled water, and Sarafina is the name of Nala's mother in the Disney movie, "The Lion King." Andersen's WAS very pretty and had long hair (again, we don't know what color it was supposed to be), she DID have a beautiful singing voice that she sold to a sea witch, and she DID want to be a human girl because she fell in love with a human prince. However, there ARE similarities between "The Little Mermaid" and Ariel. The original is also a very sad tale it includes unrequited love and other unhappy situations. While both versions say that her mother is no longer living, Andersen's had a grandmother as a main character, while Ariel's grandmother is not mentioned. ![]() Ariel's age is 16, while the little mermaid's age is 15. In the original, she isn't even given a real name, nor does he give her a specific hair color. The original story is quite different than the Disney version. (Ariel's story wasn't published until 1989!) Andersen was the first to create "The Little Mermaid," but throughout the years, his story has inspired many versions, including film and Broadway ones. Not everybody realizes this fact, but the Disney version of "The Little Mermaid" (a red-haired female by the name of Ariel) was actually based on "The Little Mermaid," a fairytale written by Hans Christian *Andersen in 1836. After all, there are many types of blond/blonde hair, including types that look almost brown! One example of a dark blonde/brownish-blonde is "dark ash blonde." From Quiz: Official Disney Princess Trivia She just has a different shade of blonde than Aurora does. IF Cinderella is strawberry-blonde, she is definitely still a blonde just in case anybody was wondering whether or not somebody who doesn't have stereotypical blonde hair should still be considered a blonde. It is my opinion, therefore, that Cinderella could be strawberry-blonde, but I wouldn't go so far as to to call her a "ginger" or a "burnt orange." When I got a little older, I did begin to think that Cinderella's hair was a tad bit different and/or darker than Sleeping Beauty's hair (my favorite princess and another movie I watched a lot). I never thought that she perhaps was supposed to be a redhead. When I was much younger, my mom and I watched "Cinderella" a lot, and I always thought that her hair looked blonde. But I do want to point out that strawberry-blonde is indeed a shade of blonde hair, which is different from burnt orange, which is indeed a shade of red hair.įrankly, this "burnt orange" with Cinderella stuff is new to me. Personally, I think that golden blonde, strawberry-blonde, and red hair are ALL pretty AND princess-like. The most common assumption is that she is, or should be, a strawberry-blonde. This has led to fans debating over what her real hair color really should be. In the (1950) film, it was "burnt orange." However, she is shown as a golden blonde in the franchise. Rapunzel (from "Tangled") is interesting she gained magical power from the sun to have her hair change to a bright, light blonde, which she had for most of the film.Īccording to the Disney Wiki Cinderella article, her hair color has changed throughout the years. Merida (from "Brave") is another Official Disney Princess who has red hair. Jasmine (from "Aladdin") also has black hair. Aurora (from "Sleeping Beauty") and Cinderella (from "Cinderella") have blonde, while Mulan (from "Mulan"), Pocahontas (from "Pocahontas"), Snow White (from "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs"), and Tiana (from "The Princess and the Frog") all have black. Of the ones listed in the answer choices, Ariel (from "The Little Mermaid") and Belle (from "Beauty and the Beast") are the only Official Disney Princesses who don't have black or blonde hair.
