Disney Heroines + their names’ meanings
Bonus:
reblogging almost solely because almost everyone’s name is meaningful but Rapunzel’s literally just means lettuce
alright but Merida’s name is “one who has achieved a place of high honor” from Latin. There’s three Latin cities named Merida.
What I learned from this is “ Tiana is the moon moon of the princesses”
Megara means pearl too I think
“Moana looks exactly the same as Rapunzel”

Okay, but it’s actually super-important that Claire Hummel changed the portrait of Pocahontas after being criticized by native activists for the first Pocahontas’s age/sexualization etc.

A Whole New World…
(( So this week I decided to try something a little different. :) I saw some beautiful “race-bent” Disney a while ago and wanted to try it out, so here’s some of our ladies. :D (There wasn’t really any rhyme or reason to my choices, I just started fiddling with the images and these happened.) :P I’m going to go back to doing genderbent stuff, but I think I’ll do some of these every once in a while if you guys would like to see more. :) ))
