Actually, I recently found out an interesting tidbit that, to me, makes the names kind of AWESOME.

Hans Christian Anderson is the writer of (the most famous version of?) The Snow Queen.

The characters are:

Hans Kristoff Anna Sven

The names are a direct tribute to him. :D Elsa isn't included, but I kind of like her name. As far as I know, it's not a common Western name, right? It still sounds "normal" but is pretty, too.

Eh, the story is barely even related to the Snow Queen, so idk what the point of that is (same with those two servants named Gerda and Kai).

[vethica]

There were minor characters named Gerda and Kai? Oh come on. =_=

[(Anonymous)]

It was still "inspired by". They were probably planning a more direct adaption and it develop into the current version. This is still a tribute to the original inspiration.

I seriously don't understand why it annoys people so much.

[vethica]

I think a lot of us liked the original story and got all excited about seeing a Disney adaptation of it, only to realize that it wasn't really an adaptation of the same story at all. :(

mte.

Yeah, it was changed, for better or worse. But at least they aren't pretending it's an original idea? I think the name tribute is cute. And even if the story was changed, it is still a great story and has a lot of great themes.

Because people love the original fairy tale and want to see that on the big screen. Of course they're going to be disappointed when the end product has barely any similarity to the story they love.

I have no beef with Frozen, but that's why I don't like Cinderella.

[(Anonymous)]

...but Disney's Cinderella is very close to the specific Cinderella story it's based on (which is Perrault's, NOT Grimm's)...what am I missing?

Elsa is a pretty common Western name.

[(Anonymous)]

..I'm Western and I have never once heard the name Elsa. It can't be that common.

Really? My cat's name is Elsa. (Admittedly, after the lion in Born Free, but I've heard it elsewhere).
