Baby names from Disney films can summon up positive memories. For some of us, watching The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, and Lady and the Tramp shaped our childhoods. If you were inspired by Disney movies growing up, you might consider the name of a Disney character — such as Belle or Nala — for your child.
Along with Belle and Nala, other Disney baby names in the US Top 1000 include Ariel, Bianca, Dash, Elsa, Flynn, Michael, Oliver, and Tiana. Disney villains with great names include Ursula, Jafar, Sid, and Gaston.
These Disney character baby names come from classic films as well as more recent movies. Some names, like Mowgli or Vanellope, have strong ties to their Disney character, while others are less likely to have an immediate association.
Explore our entire collection of Disney baby names below, ordered according to their current popularity on Nameberry.
