Disney Princess Article: My Ranking of the Disney Princesses

posted by sunnyfields

I have seen other people post their own ranking of the Disney Princesses, and since I'm new here, I thought it would be fun to do my own ranking.

I would upendo to hear your maoni about your own ranking and thoughts about my ranking of the Disney Princesses.

Thank wewe so much for creating a welcoming community where I feel comfortable enough to post my personal opinions.

My ranking of the Disney Princesses has changed a lot over the years, but this is my current ranking for 2019.

14. Merida: I really wanted to like Merida as I have a Scottish heritage and family still living in Scotland, but she harmed her mother and didn't seem to care.

I like that she mended her relationship with her mother later, but I wish she had thought about the possible consequences of her actions.

13. Tiana: I like how Tiana works hard for what she wants in life, but I also feel like she works too hard at times. She doesn't take a step back from her life and realize that sometimes things happen for a reason.

12. Belle: I like how Belle doesn’t judge others kwa how they look, and that she is willing to stand up to the Beast when he is being mean to her. She truly sees the beauty within the Beast.

Belle can have a temper at times and not really find the happiness in her situation at the beginning of the movie, so I don’t relate to those parts of her as much, but she is still a great character.

11. Cinderella: I feel sorry for placing Cinderella so low on this list. She is the princess that shares my personality. We are both ISFJ personalities, and I relate to her so much.

I preferred the live action version of cinderella zaidi as she was willing to stay optimistic and tried to keep the deer salama from the prince as I am an animal lover.

I preferred the live action version of Cinderella more as she was willing to stay optimistic and tried to keep the deer safe from the prince as I am an animal lover.

10. Mulan: I really appreciate Mulan’s courage to stand up and fight for her family. She showed that she was willing to die to keep her father safe.

Family is very important to me, and I would do anything to keep them safe, but I am not even close to being as brave as she is, which is why I don’t relate to her as much as others on my list.

9. Moana: I upendo the relationship Moana has with her grandmother as my grandmother is a lot like Tala. Moana was hesitant to follow her dreams as I was when I decided I wanted to become an elementary school teacher.

9. Moana: I love the relationship Moana has with her grandmother as my grandmother is a lot like Tala. Moana was hesitant to follow her dreams as I was when I decided I wanted to become an elementary school teacher.

My mother wanted me to become a doctor, and I actually started college to become one, but my dream of being a teacher kept calling to me just as the sea called Moana.

8. Elsa: I relate a lot to Elsa as I have struggled with anxiety for a long time. I like that she overcame that anxiety as I am learning to in my own life. I don’t like how she shut her sister out, though.

Even though she was scared of hurting Anna, I feel like she should have at least spoken to her rather than being too afraid to leave her room. Family is really important to me, and I can’t imagine shutting them out the way Elsa did.

7. Ariel: I like Ariel’s curiosity and that she pursued her dream, but she did not go about things in a logical way and put her entire kingdom in danger. I love her carefree and happy personality, though.

6. Jasmine: I like how jimmy, hunitumia sought to fight against the injustices in her country. She saw that there was a problem with the rule that she must marry a prince, and that the circumstances Aladin found himself in were unfair.

6. Jasmine: I like how Jasmine sought to fight against the injustices in her country. She saw that there was a problem with the rule that she must marry a prince, and that the circumstances Aladdin found himself in were unfair.

She stood up for what she felt was right while looking on the inside rather than on appearances. I think that she was a little rude to the suitors, and she could have just said that she wasn’t interested in them rather than embarrassing them.

She was my inayopendelewa princess growing up, and I still upendo how strong she is as a character.

She was my favorite princess growing up, and I still love how strong she is as a character.

5. Snow White: I have recently come to appreciate Snow White’s kindness and optimism.

She prayed for those who disliked her and continued to dream about being with her prince all while working and staying strong during her horrible circumstance.

I also try to be kind to those who may have wronged me in my life, and people may see me as naïve au gullible as I do tend to give people many sekunde chances, so I relate to Snow White in that way.

I also try to be kind to those who may have wronged me in my life, and people may see me as naïve or gullible as I do tend to give people many second chances, so I relate to Snow White in that way.

4. Aurora: I upendo how she is shy, sweet, and kind. She is also so nice to the forest creatures, and she accepts her responsibility as a princess despite being upset that her dream to be with Phillip would not come true... au so she thought.

4. Aurora: I love how she is shy, sweet, and kind. She is also so nice to the forest creatures, and she accepts her responsibility as a princess despite being upset that her dream to be with Phillip would not come true... or so she thought.

She didn't run away, and she faced the life that was meant for her head on. I am also a little shy and can relate to Aurora having to accept what life throws at you.

3. Pocahontas: I upendo how Pocahontas protects wanyama and nature. She is very mature as she tries to make difficult decisions in her life. I have faced similar choices in my life.

3. Pocahontas: I love how Pocahontas protects animals and nature. She is very mature as she tries to make difficult decisions in her life. I have faced similar choices in my life.

I had to decide if I should choose the path that would please my family kwa becoming a doctor, au if I would follow my dream of becoming a teacher. Pocahontas is truly inspiring how she doesn’t waver in her beliefs and follows her dreams.

2. Anna: I relate so much to Anna and her relationship with her sister as I have an older sister who has a lot of anxiety and shut me out for years. I also like Anna’s optimism and hope that things will work out in the end.

I relate to her because I have been sheltered most of my life and want to find my prince someday, but hopefully I will be able to discern his character better than she did. I am also a little awkward.

1. Rapunzel: Rapunzel is so optimistic, kind, and curious. I relate to not knowing when my life will begin and trying to stay positive and hopeful despite having been sheltered growing up.

I also relate to Rapunzel as I try to pursue my dream of becoming a teacher. I hesitated to pursue my dream because of not wanting to make my mother upset, just like Rapunzel felt conflicted about leaving the tower because of Gothel.

Also, I wonder if it will be all that I dream it will be, just like Rapunzel wondered if the lanterns would meet her expectations. She is realistic as she realizes that sometimes reality is different from our dreams.

She makes the best of her situation and finds joy in the little things in life. She is so inspiring as she made her dreams a reality.

whatsupbugs Great article.

sunnyfields ^ Thank you. :D

MaidofOrleans Great article, and thank you for sharing your list! I like how you structured your article with your opinions in the captions of the photos, that is a refreshing change from the wall of text you normally see. My list is suuuper different from yours: your top two are my bottom two, and my top 6 are your bottom 6. It seems like we rank them based on different things. Based on what you said here, it looks to me like how much you relate to a princess has a strong effect on where they fall in your list, whereas I rank the DPs more based on how much I enjoy them as a character. I can definitely see why you ranked them the way you did though! Thanks again for sharing.

sunnyfields ^ MaidofOrleans Thank you for your lovely comment :). I wasn't quite sure how to do the formatting for this, and the captions took a long time because they have a word limit, but it was a lot of fun to make and find pictures for. I do rank them a lot based on how I relate to them and their situations, but my top two favorites (Rapunzel and Anna) are also my favorite characters to watch in general as they inspire me to remain optimistic and find joy in life despite obstacles I may face. I still have a lot of anxiety, so watching these characters be carefree and joyful is really inspiring to me. When I feel like I can relate to a character, I form a stronger connection to that character and can understand why they do what they do in the movie. When I see myself in the character, it also helps me in my real life as I see how they work through their situations. Thank you again for your thoughts. I look forward to the many more posts I'll read on this cite. I hope you have a wonderful night. :D

asteriamalfoy I'm glad you were able to fix the article so that all the text would show! I also really liked how you included two pictures per princess. It's a refreshing change. It's funny how we have a lot of similarities in princesses but differences too. Ariel, Jasmine, and Pocahontas are still some of my top favorites even though they've fallen down your list. On the other hand, I'm so glad to see Aurora and Snow White so high! I love the classics and wish they got more respect from the general fandom so it's nice to see that you love and cherish them so much! I like Anna a lot as well, more than Elsa, which really surprised me, but Rapunzel is actually one of my least favorites. Yet, your infectious description of her makes me want to like her more than I do, something no one else has been able to do before. Also love how you included live-action Cinderella here. I love both her and the animated one equally. I'm also an ISFJ personality so it's great to meet another one! Thanks for posting such a well-written and interesting article!

sunnyfields ^ asteriamalfoy Thank you so much for commenting. I am glad to find another person who enjoys many of the same characters that I do. I know I have an unpopular opinion about liking Aurora, Snow White, and Anna more than Elsa. I absolutely loved the live action Cinderella, and think she might even be in my 3rd or 4th spot if I had included the live action versions separately from the cartoon characters. I just love how cheerful and optimistic that movie is despite having a lot of similarities to the original, but the original was darker and less hopeful, in my opinion. I am glad that you are starting to like Rapunzel more. She became my favorite the moment I saw her movie, and I connect to her so much. She is very cheerful and a character that is truly inspiring and an epitome of the Disney magic. It is also nice to meet another ISFJ. :) Thank you again for your lovely comments. :D

Mongoose09 This article is really cute, I really like the format. Our lists are quite different but I love that you have both Aurora & Snow in your top 5; Tiana, Belle and Cinderella are much higher on mine but I understand why they're lower on yours. Rapunzel is on the lower part of my list but she's growing on me recently and I get why people like her. I noticed the Princesses you found yourself relating more to tended to be higher. nice & unique list. :)

sunnyfields ^ Mongoose09 Thank you so much for reading my article. I have been pleasantly surprised by how many people here seem to like the original princesses since the news and other online articles seem to make the originals seem weak and not good role models. When I was making the article, I thought about moving Cinderella up, and since I saw the live action remake this year, I have really grown to like her character more than I did when I was younger (just like I now like Snow White), so who knows, maybe she will make it to my top 5 someday, too. A lot of the princesses in the middle of my list have moved around quite a bit. Like Elsa used to farther down, then at spot 6, and now she has landed at spot 8, so I feel my enjoyment of the character depends a lot on what i am going through at the moment and which one inspires me for my current situations. I still really admire characters like Mulan and Tiana, so I hold nothing against them, and if I were to rank my favorite Disney princess movies Mulan would be higher on my list and Frozen would be near the bottom. I know that it may seem strange that I like the characters I relate to or ones I find inspiring and optimistic, but the princesses really helped me at different stages in my life and now that I am trying to grasp the idea of being an adult. Also, it is kind of like a "get to know me" activity, which I also saw some people posting articles of. :) Thanks again for reading and the sweet comment. :D
