But I do associate it with Disney because I have a 5 year old :) We were just reading a Merida book together last night. I still think it's a pretty name though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-653827 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 08:26:39 +0000 swurlygurl 653827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you should go for it - it's definitely a beautiful name. Like others, I know of several girls with the same names as Disney princesses, and don't think of Disney when I think of their name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-606814 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 17:56:52 +0000 MrsH 606814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

I agree that the association is not there - go for it!</p> <p>@Mrs. Pen: good call with Giselle! I forgot about her! You know you're princesses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-505290 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 12:03:26 +0000 sarac 505290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hell to the no. Not in a million years.</p> <p>I'm not sure that Merida counts as a disney princess, though. It's a pixar film, first, and it so breaks the disney mold that I personally wouldn't even think about it. Merida is awesome - I'm saving that movie for when my girl is old enough to be inspired by it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-505263 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 11:53:51 +0000 Mrs. Pen 505263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: ooh right! sorry I was just going off the top of my head... although Alice isn't as much a disney princess as just a character :) that would add a whole new slew of names to the list! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-505253 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 11:49:06 +0000 .twist. 505253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: oooh.

I think you guys can totally pull it off. When I first saw the title of this thread I was hoping you wouldn't say something like Mulan or Cinderella =P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-504822 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:58:54 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 504822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Disney princesses especially the newer ones kick butt, so yes Merida is great. I know plenty of Ariels and Jasmines abd do not necessarily associate them with their animated namesakes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-504795 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:45:43 +0000 lovehoneybee 504795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Merida is a great name, and the fact that she's a Disney Princess wouldn't dissuade me.</p> <p>I definitely wouldn't use like, Cinderella or Snow White, but some of the other Disney Princess names would be okay (like Aurora or Tiana, and definitely Merida). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-give-your-lo-the-same-name-as-a-disney-princess#post-504793 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:45:35 +0000 Bao 504793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go for it!

If your chances of having a redhead baby are high though, I'd avoid it.</p> <p>My parents almost named me Ariel and I'm so glad they didn't, since I have long red hair and would have gotten endless "Little Mermaid" teasing. </p> <p>Otherwise?
