Real Names in “Descendants“

Here’s a rant + solution about the characters’ names in Descendants.

Who in his right mind could accept Lonnie’s name is just that? Mal makes sense for the explanation we were given, but Evie? Even assuming Ally is short for something, isn’t that’s a weird name? The books have stuff like Herkie, Lil’ Shang, Pin, Tiger Peony, Ginny Gothel and I don’t know how many more and while I get it’s about making them recognizeable as the children of certain characters, I do get it, I still think they’re bad.

So I decided to compile a list of presumable actual names of the Descendants kids, VK and AK alike that anyone could feel free to use in fics.

Two little notes before anything else:

the -son/-dottir patronimics I see sometimes in fics are North European and should be used only in the right context, avoided otherwise. In Ancient Greek the correct suffix is -ides (gender neutral), so Mal wouldn’t be Hadesdottir but Hadeides; similarly, Uma would be Ursulaides, and Ursula Poseidonides and so forth. Despite that, I assume Auradon would want to conform to the habit of fixed family names that is normal in modern Europe, so they’d make everyone adopt one, like Chad Charming, or use the place of origin, like Jordan of Agrabah.

The explanation I have in-universe for some names is that there's an obsession in Auradon with precising who their famous parents/relatives/family friends could be and many kids end up with nicknames tied to that. Either this or because names have power when it comes to magic, so real names are kept secret and known only by the most trusted people, but that wouldn’t get along with how magic works in the movies, nor with the fact Ben and Mal shared their middle names like it was no big deal (but then again, Ben could have a secret third name and Mal didn’t specify her first name is short for Maleficent). The first explanation is easier.

I’ve been working on this list for quite some time. As such, if you use this as reference it’s fine, but I’d like to be told at least, even in a note to this post and given credit if you pick one of my ideas that aren’t mainstream in the fandom.

Also, I may add to/modify this post later on, but without taking into account anything made after Descendants 3.

That said, VKs first:

Mal: we’ve been said Mal is just short for Maleficent and the daughter isn’t allowed to use the full name because she “didn’t deserve it”. Abusive and terrible, yet it fits. But I don’t think Hades would agree and in myths there is a Melinoe who is an Hades’ daughter, so Mal’s full real name could be Maleficent Bertha Melinoe Hadeides or just Melinoe Bertha Hadeides.

Jay: I saw Jayden around and, nope, it doesn’t work for me. Either Jayanth or Jayad (both mean “victorious one”) sound a lot better and more fitting for the general area Aladdin is set in. But, really, this page has tons of names starting with Jay, pick one from there. (also, for a proper surname you should check Arabic onomastic, which is complicated, so just use “of the Isle” or “of Agrabah”, unless you know the subject well. I don’t think Auradonians would bother to learn anyway)

Evie: oh, dear, my poor girl, what an atrocity. It could be short for anything like Evelyn, Evangeline (but the Evil Queen would never choose such a meek name, plus it’s tied to Tiana’s story), Evanna, Evalina, Evisse, all can work, but the one I prefer is Everhilde or Everild, which would call back to the Evil Queen’s real name, Grimhilde. On this note, I suppose Genevieve could work too with the “parent-children with same intials” trend.

Carlos: I already said I find weird he has a Spanish name when Cruella is British, and unless there are some Spanish roots somewhere in the de Vil lineage, his name should have been Charles. But recently I headcanoned his father could be Bruno Madrigal, so the Spanish name could stay (in the books it’s stated his middle name is Oscar, which @dragoneyes618 reminded me was also Bruno’s first-draft name), so, Carlos Oscar de Vil-Madrigal.

Uma: it’s a Hebrew or Hindi name and a weird fit for the granddaughter of Poseidon (yes, I am one of those who agrees Ursula is one of Poseidon’s children and thinks a name meaning “little she-bear” is a tad weird for a sea being). But, after all, Ariel is a Hebrew name too, so Uma fits the Little Mermaid lore and all is well.

The three Hook siblings (Harriet, Harry and Calista Jane) have the most normal and reasonable names of the whole franchise and I won’t dare to change them. Perhaps I’d argue Harriet and Harry are fem/male variants of the same name, but, really, there is worse in the franchise (and I guess, when she made up Harriet, Melissa de la Cruz had no idea they’d later create Harry for the next movies).

Gil: his real name could be Gillaume (variant of Guillaume) or Gilbert. Personally, I prefer the latter (like Gilbert Motier de La Fayette, you know, lol). His brothers’ names, unfortunately, fit with Gaston’s narcissism, so they can stay. The canon surname is LeGume, although I’m not sure where it comes from exactly as it’s never mentioned in either movie or live action as far as I remember.

Freddie: I think Frederique Facilier sounds great and she probably hates it. I read that in a fic but I don’t remember whose, maybe @ginnyrules27 or @hannahhook7744 or @dragoneyes618, feel free to correct me if it’s none of theirs.

Celia: it’s a name in its own good, used in both French and Spanish (fitting for New Orleans’ culture), but if we want, we can consider it short for Cecilia.

Ginny Gothel: assuming Gothel (like Yzma) was able to procreate and Ginny isn’t actually Cassandra’s daughter (I haven’t seen the series though so I don’t know much about her), Ginny is still an abbreviation, usually of Ginevra/Guinevere. I can’t fathom why Gothel’s name became a surname though, I’m at loss here, unless we are supposed to read it as Ginevra Gotheldottir (Rapunzel is a germanic tale, so this kind of patronimic fits), shortened Ginny Gothel.

Dizzy: I wrecked my brain on this. Drusilla or Desdemona. That’s it, that’s the top I could come up with. Drusilla Tremaine-Westergard, in my universe, to be precise.

The only other Tremaine cousin we have a canon name for is Anthony and I think it’s a perfectly fine name. Antoine if we set the story in pseudo-France.

Hadie: Hades had few children in the myths and Zagreus was the one I liked the most, that’s my reasoning. In myths, Zagreus is Persephone’s son but here it could be anyone’s, he’d still keep the Greek patronimic, so Zagreus Hadeides.

Squeaky and Squirmy Smee: those are 100% nicknames, it can’t be otherwise. In fact, in piracy, it’s pretty normal to have nicknames and aliases that are known more than regular names, like Calico Jack, Blackbeard, Big Murph and so on. The twins likely have normal names like Sullivan and Sean or something like that. In fact, their big brother is Sammy, short for Samuel, I assume, so it pretty much supports it.

Mad Maddy: while “mad“ is a mockery/title, Maddy should be short for Magda or Magdalene, but it’s used on its own too, so it’s your pick.

LeFou Deux: stupid name, like so stupid it can’t be real. Let’s pick a normal french name, like Denis LeFou, with the mockery he acts like father, they call him Le Fou Deux aka “twice as stupid”. Kids can be cruel.

Claudine Frollo: unfortunately, it’s an actual French name, but a religious zealot would maybe give her a double name, like Marie-Claudine.

Zevon and Yzla: I don’t know what to say here, I really don’t. Yzla sounds bad, that’s all I can say (but I admit Zevon has a nice ring). I accept suggestions.

AKs:

Lil’ Shang: first thing first, in China (and other Eastern countries) surnames come before names. So Li=surname Shang=name. Cleared that up, this name makes sense only as a nickname (which I hate). If we want it to start with S and an assonance with his father��s, we could pick Sheng (victory) or Shuang (clear and bright).

Lonnie: Lanying, which, mispronunciated, became Lonnie, it would make sense if said by kids first. (Fun fact: irl Lin Lanying was the name of a scientist, there’s also a Guo Lanying who is a soprano, both great women).

Herkie: oh, don’t make me start with this. This is one of the atrocious names that are clearly rip-offs of the parent’s names and I hate that. Hercules had lots and lots of children in the myths, from Megara in particular he had four: Therimachus, Creontiades, Ophitus and Deicoon. Pick whatever you prefer, I am partial to Therimachus, too difficult for Auradonians to enunciate, they started to call him Herkie as a nickname that stuck.

Tiger Peony: I’m certain I’m not the first who thinks a name like this is, like, the epitome of disrespectful. For the same reason, I admit I know nothing of the subject and ask if someone could tell what an appropriate name for her could be.

Ally: Allison Liddel (original Alice’s surname) or Kingsley (live action surname). Or another surname if she took her father’s (I am partial to the Tim Burton movies and ship Alice and the Hatter, so Allison Hightopp, but that’s just me).

Jordan: Joodah (or Joudah) meaning “generous“ or “of high qualities“ (as far as I could find, please feel free to correct me).

Artie: don’t ask me where I took it from, but in my head his full name is Arnault Pendragon (and he isn’t Guinevere’s son as Disney’s Arthur married another woman under the advice of Merlin, but this is all my headcanon).

Pin: Pinocchio’s son. Now, in Italy it is traditional to name children after parents or grandparents (I have one uncle and 5 cousins all named after my maternal grandfather and other 4 cousins after my grandmother, to say nothing of the ones who have them as middle names), so it wouldn’t be weird BUT! we don’t have names without final vowels, especially first names, in Italian, so he’d be called Pino. Which is also short for Giuseppe (Giuseppino) and I much prefer that (if they wanted to use Geppetto’s name it would have made sense too, and that he would have been nicknamed Geppettino > Tino).

Now, for the dwarves’ sons I picked German names with the same initials:

“Doc II” Dominic;

“Hap” Harold;

“Cheerful” Klemens;

“Gesundheit”/“Gus” Gustav;

“Bash” Bastian;

“Shy” Silas;

“Crabby” Conrad;

“Sleepy jr” Simon;

“Snoozy” Samuel.

Doug and Gordon are normal names and can stay.

Ruby and Anxelin Fitzherbert: I’m not even sure from where we got those names from for Rapunzel’s daughters, I seem to recall Ruby mentioned in Wicked World, maybe? Anyway, I don’t like either name. Anxelin is the name of a wine, that’s a very strange choice, and Ruby, uh, is too generic, I guess? There are so many german names to pick from, if we want to follow the pattern of same initial as the parents! Renate, Rayna, Reinheld, Richel, Roslin, Rowena... then Engelbertha, Eda, Erika, Evonne, Edith,... Just research a bit. If we really want to keep the original ones, Anxelin could be a deformation of something like Annegret or Analise, and Ruby could stand for Ruperta or Ruomhildi, although I prefer to call them Annika (same initials as Queen Arianna, Rapunzel’s real mother) and Roslin.

Opal: daughter of Mama Odie (what is it with those super-old women having teenage kids?!) can be Opal of the Bayou, I suppose. It has a nice ring, actually, although I don’t know what tie opal stones may have with voodoo.

Bobby Hood: usually, Bobby is short for Robert, which fits the area and the pattern. Robin is, at times, short for Robert, but I don’t think it’s the case here. The surname Locksley was discarded by Robin, provided it existed in the Disneyverse, but it’s worth remembering it.

This post will possibly be corrected expanded in the future and I appreciate further discussion, as long as all parties are respectful and thoughtful.

Genevieve "Evie" de Grimhilde

[devilsanddarlings]

@legends-and-savages

Genevieve de Grimhilde had no shortage of tricks up her perfectly designed sleeves, but the one she utilized most often was her looks. People were naturally inclined to underestimate a pretty face, and Evie wasn’t ashamed to say that she used that to her full advantage and devastating effect. The bluenette had lost count of the number of times over the years she’d been dismissed as a potential threat simply because a foe had taken one look at her and deemed her far too superficial to be dangerous. It made things all the more humorous for her when she outmaneuvered them at every turn.

Harry had never underestimated her though. He kept parts of himself hidden beneath a facade few knew how to see through much like she herself did, and for that he had become something of a kindred spirit - even if their friends were usually at odds. “I like keeping my cards close to the vest. It makes it easier to cheat,” Evie quipped, winking at him. “But my business with your sisters is concluded, if you’d like to take a walk with me and see if there’s anything edible at the market.”

There were plenty of people that forgot that Harry was smart. He hid it a lot, and he could see that Evie was really thinking about what he said. They were really speculating on anything that could happen. But if something like that was happening well he could see it happening.

"That does sound like you." Harry said. "It means that people underestimate you." He was almost sure most people would see the pretty face rather then see how smart she was. "You hungry? Or still waiting for one of my sisters?"

Evie arriving in Auradon

[underrateddescendantsscreenshots]

the absolute amusement from mal and evie, the horror in jane, and the wonder and mischief in lonnie give me life, thank you for coming to my ted talk.

[autismvampyre]

ok but is evie's real name genevieve?? cause i read that somewhere, its not on the wiki but like its a cool concept.

i feel like queen grimhilde would give her kid a real old and uncommon name to set her apart from the other non royal vks, and everyone just calls her evie cause its way easier to say and spell than fucking genevieve

i now fully accept that as canon cause its v fitting

[devilsanddarlings]

@ofblackskies

Genevieve de Grimhilde was not the sort of girl who allowed herself to be flustered by male attention. Her mother had raised her from an early age to be flirty, coy, and charming; the type of girl princes wanted to wed. Yet here she was, pink-cheeked and at a loss for her usual composure like some sort of blushing maiden.

It was completely unacceptable. What on Earth was Auradon doing to her? Whatever it was, it had to stop. Letting a glimmer of her Isle self bleed through for a moment, she brought her lips to Jay’s cheek and pretended to kiss it.

“Your name isn’t as important as mine, Jadid. Mine is the one you’ll need to save for later when I’m making you moan,” the bluenette whispered against his skin wickedly before pulling back with a sweet smile.

“You’re right, of course. It is weird how different things are here. But some things, the ones that matter….well, they’ll always be the same, won’t they?”

He may have enjoyed it when she was able to take him up on it, but Jay found that he liked this coy, embarrassed playfulness that she was upholding for the Auradonian’s sake just as endearing. As she ducked her head, he laughed a bit, eyes twinkling with mischief.

"That’s my name, don’t wear it out babe." He teased, tone impish as he nudged her softly. "Seriously though… it’s pretty weird to know that we could do like… anything here, huh?"

Polyamarous Benny Boo

Hi im 100% here for Ben being a polyam gang activity boy who's like legit not gonna even bat an eye to the suggestion of it.

He is like down cause he's respecting the isle's culture in a way so like it's not even controversal.

I love harem ben.

Like just the boy starting off with mal and then like slowly evie gets her flirty hands over him and then like uma joins the group and now that shes good terms with mal is just pushing boundaries until Ben just clueless ben asks mal why the two of them are being so flirty and why it doesn't bother her and why the fuck harry and uma look like they want to eat him??

And like she just doesn't get it at first cause like she doesn't have a word for what they call "gang activity" on the isle and he just goes with it, like "oh...okay so that's cool on the isle?" "Yeah is it not on Auradon?" "Not really but that's ok"

and so ben legit just tries out the whole flirty thing now knowing mal is chill with it and then just like Carlos man. He double takes when ben flirts and instantly goes to evie and is like what the fuck just happened??? "Is he suggesting shit i don't get?" And evie is like "I'm sure he was just being friendly Carlos don't think so hard on it" until he just keeps it up and it's like actually obvious and she just gets confused why he's flirting with everyone and like talks to mal if things are cool with them?

Like cause evie thought since they're in auradon now that they all were gonna be monogamous and shit since it seemed like everyone was pairing off and like mal just tells her that they talked.

After that evie just let's loose knowing the boundaries have shattered and things are okay in Mals book now.

So like Evie gets intimate, holding hands cuddling during movies, kisses on cheeks and heads, and stuff.

But then Ben is the one who just up and kisses Evie in front of everyone its a real quick peck and like he's nervous about it but he wants to give this type of intimacy a chance for Mal so he went for it (during like a sleepover movie night kinda thing with the crew) and like everyone (even mal) is a little shocked at it and Evie blushes as he gets up to go get more popcorn right after the peck and like Carlos is confused™ and jay looks utterly astounded on what happened, Evie is flustered and mal just double-takes cause ben just had the guts to kiss Evie IN FRONT of her, like gang activity for her has never really gone that intimate cause romantic love is just seen as a weakness on the isle and it's weird but she's kinda okay with it.

So like Ben comes back and has popcorn in his mouth just to seem less nervous and make it not that big of deal like he thinks mal would expect from him, but like he just stops in his tracks as he comes back with a mouthful of popcorn as everyone stares at him like he has two heads.

And he just says "what? Do i have something on my face?"

So then after a lot of confusion and talking from the vks ben just casually holds evies hand and holds Carlos around the waist, and plays with jays hair, there are probably some paparazzi shots and rumors of the King cheating on his queen with him and evie kissing hiting the news and like people get upset until legit just like a day after it releases people get even more confused when mal evie and ben are all spotted on a date where mal is in bens arms with evie giving her a kiss and just ben smiling and like it confuses EVERYONE but like Ben shuts that shit down so fucking quick from all the reporters asking if he and Evie are in a relationship/is he cheating on Queen Mal and like he legit just say No, I'm not cheating and he just goes on to say that he respects the culture of the isle and his queen by his side and he himself takes part in it. And just in the most eloquent way possible shuts the reporter up by saying I'm king bitch my personal life is none of your business.

I also kinda see Audrey, and chad and co. Being hella weirded out like "that's cheating Benny-Boo you can't do that" etc. And he just calmly tells all the AKs that he's happy.

Basically I just need more nonchalant Polya ben cause it makes me happy that he would try new things for mal and then like actually really enjoy not having strict rules on how to behave in a relationship like the heteronormative prince and princess society he is so ingrained in and its nice to relax and just be intimate in a way that's alittle less platonic with the people he loves. It makes me deeply happy!

@neverlandborn​ | comfort character starter

[prettydead]

                Most Auradonians could spend their entire lives without visiting the slums of The Isle. It was a reminder of a time that many would prefer to forget. The tragedy of allowing Villains to sire children who were forced to feed upon trash and live surrounded by cruelty. Despite Evie owing her existence to The Isle – she couldn't deny its creation was a mistake. "How intriguing…."

              The Poison Appletini was delivered to Evie, as she watched him. There was something peculiar about him. Alien to both The Isle and Auradon – and she couldn't quite place it. Like in a world of black and white, he was grey.

              For one bore on the Isle – Evie was dressed meticulously. It made her stand out amongst her compatriots. She looked like a princess among peasants. "So what brings you here, Roronoa Zoro?” Not deterred yet – due to curositiy.

              "I am personally having a Post-Mother Visit drink." Even though Evie may have been in her twenties, The Evil Queen was still The Evil Queen. Though her ruling days may have been long over, she was still a handful. "I’m The Evil Queen’s daughter.” She smiled as she took a sip of her drink.

"Haven't been around here." He countered, gaze dropping only to take in the movement but lifting far faster than a male who'd been captivated would have.

Settling farther against the bar he lifted his drink to his lips, taking a swig as he watched the crowd before him. Taking in everything and nothing at the same time as he offhandedly answered her question on his name. Perhaps it would cause her to run, though judging by her attire it wouldn't. "Roronoa Zoro."
