Favourite Disney Princess?

Inspired by a question from a young friend - who is your favourite? Mine is Cinderella - I'm 59 and I'm wondering if replies might be age dependant 🤔

I don’t think Mulan is technically a princess but that’s who I’ve always had an affinity too - I so related to her awkwardness and ‘fish out of water’ situation and that she has to work really hard to become good at what she does. I don’t think any Disney female character had been shown in this kind of ungraceful yet relatable and admirable way before.
The live action film completely missed the point of her original character by making her a naturally talented (and dull as dish water) Mary Sue type.

I've got a soft spot for Moana...goes and gets what she wants. No waiting for a prince to rescue her.

Ezmerelda from hunchback of notre dame

extrapineappleonmypizza · 16/03/2022 20:54

Rapunzel!

tintodeverano2 · 16/03/2022 20:54

When I was a child it was Ariel. As an adult it's Merida, followed by Mulan and Moana

ApolloandDaphne · 16/03/2022 20:54

Cinderella here too. I am the same age as you OP and I really identified with her as a child.

mamakoukla · 16/03/2022 20:54

Belle

ModerationInEverything · 16/03/2022 20:55

Rapunzel for me.

Haudyourwheesht · 16/03/2022 20:59

I like Anna. The true hero of the Frozen films.

ofwarren · 16/03/2022 21:05

Either Jasmine or Elsa

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 16/03/2022 21:07

Either Moana or Elsa. I'm 43.

IDidntWearASmileToday · 16/03/2022 21:09

Mulan (I'm 31)

TheGriffle · 16/03/2022 21:10

Belle. I’m 35 if that helps.

FuzzyPenguin · 16/03/2022 21:10

As a child no interest in Disney princesses. Now age 41 it’s Merida closely followed by Moana.

FoldedCard · 16/03/2022 21:12

As a child, Ariel.

Now, Rapunzel or Merida.

CourageCamille · 16/03/2022 21:12

Not technically a princess but Megara from Hercules. Independent, not perfect and a little bit vulnerable after her previous relationship.

Suzi888 · 16/03/2022 21:14

Moana for me.
DD would say Anna.

Ribeebie · 16/03/2022 21:15

Moana (34)

IstayedForTheFeminism · 16/03/2022 21:16

Belle. I'm 37.

AllThingsServeTheBeam · 16/03/2022 21:17

Jasmine

AllThingsServeTheBeam · 16/03/2022 21:17

Oh I'm 31

yummytummy · 16/03/2022 21:18

Merida

Then Anna

Belle. Because she likes books. I’m 46 if it helps.
But the only Disney Princess films I have seen are Snow White, Aladdin, Little Mermaid and Tangled.

DoorLion · 16/03/2022 21:18

And Beauty and the Beast, obv
