The little Mermaid was released on November 17 1989 and is largely accredited with being the film that heralded the beginning of the Disney Renaissance. With the average production time of an animated Disney film being 6 years this film was developed in the height of the 80’s.


The assignment of designing the heroine Ariel was left to animator Glen Keane who would go on to animate other Disney characters such as the Beast, Aladdin and Tarzan. He wanted the heroine to be reminiscent of the traditional Disney Princesses while at the same time being relatable to the ‘modern girl'. A common misconception is that Ariel was only modeled after a young Alyssa Milano.
While the live action model for Ariel was an obscure actress named Sherri Stoner, Alyssa did exemplify the 80’s teenager, which was reflected in Ariel. So the assumption is only partly true because Glen Keane did in fact referr to several young girls as well as Milano to see what hair styles were in and what was considered beautiful in teens at the time.

This was determined by her unique crown, robust voice, as well as speculation that her name is a Jamaican pronunciation of her mother’s name, Athena. Although her name was most likey taken from Alan Menken's rock opera "Atina, Evil Queen of the Galaxy."

Aquata has a blue tail with a matching seashell bra and brown hair that is worn in a ponytail tied up in a band of white pearls. In extension media released from 1989 onwards, she is the eldest daughter of King Triton. However, in Ariel's Beginning, she is not the eldest sister, but at the middle age, and her main characteristic seems to be a slight aggressiveness towards Arista, who borrows her stuff without asking, and a lack of grace. Her name is a variant of the Latin base Aqua meaning 'WATER'...
