[Masamune]

:lol: Sorry Nala, I have no idea what any of those are in English...

[Nala_84]

Really NO idea? Hehe okay no problem I think it's so funny that the Dutch names seem so similar to the German ones sometimes  

1.) Dornröschen ("doanrÖsshen") = Sleeping Beauty

2.) Cap und Capper = The Fox and the Hound

3.) Der König der Löwen ("Der KÖnic dea LÖven") = The Lion King

4.) Die Kühe sind los ("Dee KÜhe sind los") = Home On The Range

5.) Die Hexe und der Zauberer ("Dee Hexe & der Zowberer") = The Sword in the Stone

6.) Das große Krabbeln = A Bug's Life

[Masamune]

Aww, I should've been able to guess The Lion King...

Do Dumbo or Bambi have different names in Dutch and/or German?

[Nala_84]

No, Dumbo and Bambi are the same...

The spelling is different though: Doombo ("u" like in "look") and Bumbee ("a" like in "luck")

I guess the 101 Dalmatians (Dalmatiner) could have some different names? (I can't remember them...)  :oops:

[Masamune]

I can remember a few...

Pongo (the daddy dog)
Perdita (the mummy dog)
Cruella De Vil (the scary lady)
Roger (the man who owns Pongo)
Anita (the woman who owns Perdita)

o.o I haven't seen that film in ages...

[Nala_84]

Okay, so the names are all the same as in German ! I remember a few puppys, like Patch, Lucky, Penny and Rollo ("Rollmops"), but they're surely the same, too...

Ariel = Arielle
 ? (her fish friend) = Fabius
I guess Sebastian is the same in English, as are Scuttle, Eric, Grimsby, Triton, Ursula?!

[RiverSong]

Fabius is Flunder in English.

Great topic! I also always wondered why some names have ever been translated...

What bothers me alot is the beginnig of the movie Cinderella. Nala, if you remember the movie in German, it is explained that the name "Aschenputtel" is Cinderella in English. Normally, they should have just translated what is said in the original version, like telling the story of Cinderella, what happend to her, why she has a stepmother and so on.

By the way, Gus-Gus (the one mouse in green) is Karli ("Karl der Dicke"), I can't remember the other mouse's name.

What's about the two villains from Pinocchio? Gideon and the other guy... How are they called in the different languages?

[Nala_84]

You're right, princess--that's a real sad translation of Cinderella! Oh okay, Flunder is Fabius' name, thank you !

The mouse next to Karli (or Gus-Gus *g*) is "Jaques". And I guess the mouse girl's name is Marie or so...

Oh, and I'm just inspired by Peter Pan:

Wendy, Klaus & Michael
Naseweis (=Tinkerbell)
...the rest should be the same (Nana, Captain Hook, Smee...)

[Nala_84]

German:

Cap & Capper (=The Fox and the Hound):
Cap = Tod
Capper = Copper


Cars:
Hook = Mater

[Kristof]

Dutch:

Cars:
Mater = Takel
Lightning McQueen = Bliksem McQueen

Peter Pan:
Tinker Bell = Tinkelbel
Captain Hook = Kapitein Haak
Smee = Vetje

Wow. I never knew that Mickey & Co. would have other names in other countries!!  :shock:

I knew Topolino is Mickey Mouse in Italian, but still I hear so many Italians scream Mickey in the parade.
