9* ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Nine}} 9]]'' has [[TheWoobie 5]], because he's VERY [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace touchy-feely]] with the other characters, and [[ActionGirl 7]], because she's the [[TheSmurfettePrinciple only girl]].
10* Both Jasmine and the titular character of ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' are frequently shipped in CrossoverShip works.
11* Poor [[WesternAnimation/AliceInWonderland Alice]] is the FanVid community's Literature/{{Lolita}}.
12* The Great Prince of the Forest as portrayed in ''WesternAnimation/BambiII'' is surprisingly common ship bait. One of the more popular ones is him and ''Belle'' from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. For those not into shipping a deer with a human, there's also plenty of shipping with ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'', ''WesternAnimation/SpiritStallionOfTheCimarron'', and ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'' characters.
13* ''WesternAnimation/BigHero6'': Both Hiro AND Tadashi have been shipped with various others on numerous occasions, INCLUDING [[IncestYayShipping each other]]. Some popular characters, excluding the characters from the movie itself:
14** Tadashi: Elsa, Anna, Nani (''Lilo & Stitch''), Hiccup, and Jack Frost.
15** Hiro: Violet (''[[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles The Incredibles]]''), Penny (''Bolt''), Vanellope, Elsa, Anna, Tip (''Home''), and Riley (''[[WesternAnimation/InsideOut Inside Out]]''). Similarily to Jim from ''Treasure Planet'', he's young enough to be shipped with young characters like Riley but old enough to also be shipped with older teens like Anna from ''Frozen'' without causing too many fans be {{squick}}ed.
16* Merida from ''{{WesternAnimation/Brave}}'' launches a CrossoverShip practically every minute. She's got her own PortmanteauCoupleName with [[Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon Hiccup]] (Mericcup), and has been paired with [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Hawkeye]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}} Flynn Rider]] ''and'' Rapunzel, [[Film/TheHungerGames Katniss]], Jim Hawkins, and all three of the suitors from her own film.
17* Being the protagonist, Tinker Bell from ''Franchise/DisneyFairies'' has been shipped with a lot of the major fairies. She's even paired with her [[IncestYayShipping twin sister]], Periwinkle.
18* The one thing [[JustHereForGodzilla everyone remembers]] about ''WesternAnimation/TheFoxAndTheHound2'' is Dixie. Unsurprisingly, she's been shipped with almost every major Disney dog, the characters from ''WesternAnimation/{{Balto}}'', and even Thomas and Duchess from ''WesternAnimation/TheAristocats''.
19* ''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'':
20** Elsa has been shipped with all the main characters of her own movie, most prominently [[IncestYayShipping Anna]], Kristoff, [[FoeYayShipping Hans]] and [[LesYay Honeymaren]], as well as an uncountable number of [[CrossoverShip crossover ships]], including [[WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians Jack Frost and Pitch Black]], [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime the Ice King]], [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft the Lich King]], [[Franchise/TheIncredibles Frozone]], [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/687130-frozen practically any other ice-themed character the fans could think of]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}} Rapunzel and Flynn]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Brave}} Merida]], WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph (note: There's even a degree of WordOfGod on this pairing; Jennifer lee, who co-wrote Wreck-it-Ralph and co-directed Frozen, half-jokingly stated she thought Ralph and Elsa would make a good couple), [[Film/{{Thor}} Loki]], [[Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon Hiccup]], [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle]] and [[Film/TheHobbit Smaug]]. That's not even mentioning all the {{Original Character}}s. Elsa now seems to be vying to top Jack for most ships created in a two-month period. Even after several years, Elsa is still getting new ships, exemplified in [[http://www.deviantart.com/art/The-Winter-Smolder-445917789 this fanart]] featuring Elsa/[[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier The Winter Soldier]]. When the licensed books introduced Princess Marisol people were quick to ship her with Elsa, not helped by the minor LesYay they had already. Parodied quite often in the fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/1/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers Dear Fanfiction Writers]]''. The majority of Elsa's letters consist of [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/13/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers her]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/19/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers complaining]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/22/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers about]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/23/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers being shipped]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10174402/31/Dear-Fanfiction-Writers with everyone]].
21** It's worth noting that her sister Anna shares ''almost every single ship''. If Elsa is shipped with a character, you can bet Anna has been shipped with the same one.
22* Hiccup from ''Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon'' has had a resurgence in {{Crossover Ship}}ping with the sequel coming out soon. The fact that [[SheIsAllGrownUp his older appearance in the film ]] has been considered by many to be quite attractive has only served to help him in this case.
23* Esmeralda from ''WesternAnimation/{{The Hunchback of Notre Dame|Disney}}'' has been shipped with Quasimodo, [[FoeYayShipping Frollo]], Jasmine from ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'', Aladdin himself, various ''WesternAnimation/ThePrinceOfEgypt'' characters, Belle from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', Jim from ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'', Elsa from ''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'', numerous Disney princes, and generally various [[AllAnimationIsDisney Disney-esque]] characters.
24* Fear from ''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'' has been shipped with every other emotion besides himself in Riley's head, and that's not even counting the {{OT3}} of Fear, Anger, and Disgust. Fear is also paired a ''lot'' with female emotion {{Original Character}}s and [[SelfInsertFic self-insert]] characters.
25* ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'':
26** Scar has been paired with [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKingIISimbasPride Zira]], Nala's mother Sarafina, Sarabi, Nala (which [[VillainLoveSong is canon]] in the [[WhatCouldHaveBeen deleted]] "The Madness of King Scar" musical sequence, which was kept in [[Theatre/TheLionKing the stage version]] and is why Nala ran away to hunt), [[OCStandIn random background lionesses]], [[OriginalCharacter tons of OCs]], characters from other animated movies such as Steele from ''WesternAnimation/{{Balto}}'' and Duchess from ''WesternAnimation/TheAristocats'', and even both [[IncestYayShipping Simba and Mufasa]]. However, many of these pairings exist not because fans find them romantic, but to explain the parentage of other characters; the more bizarre ships involving him also have strong ties with the fandom's penchant for creating [[FanVid fan-edited videos]] [[ManipulativeEditing which deliberately bear]] [[AlternateUniverseFic little-to-no resemblance to the films beyond character designs and possibly setting]].
27** Simba, Nala, [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKingIISimbasPride Kiara, and Kovu]] have been shipped with numerous characters from ''The Lion King'', as well as various {{Crossover Ship}}s.
28* Ariel from ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'' is no slouch in this department. She is traditionally the most popular ''Franchise/DisneyPrincess'' after all. She has probably been paired with every prince ''and'' princess. Jim Hawkins from ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'', Nani Pelekai from ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'', WesternAnimation/PeterPan, Belle from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', Jack Frost from ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians'', Megara from ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'', and Elsa from ''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'' are just a few of them. Her daughter Melody is a ToyShip magnet herself.
29* The Once-ler from the 2012 ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lorax|2012}}'' adaptation, partly because he's attractive, and partially because there's practically no one in his canon story for him to be shipped with. Because he undergoes a FaceHeelTurn and EvilCostumeSwitch, [[ScrewYourself the two sides of him are often treated as two entirely separate characters, thus shipping Once-ler and]] [[FanNickname Greed-ler.]]
30* Thrax from ''Film/OsmosisJones'' is a popular CrossoverShip choice for {{fanvid}} makers.
31* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocahontas}}'' fans [[DieForOurShip loathe]] shipping Pocahontas with John Rolfe (her real-life love interest, not John Smith like myths say). That doesn't mean people hate shipping John Rolfe himself though. Despite being from [[WesternAnimation/PocahontasIIJourneyToANewWorld one of the less popular Disney sequels]], John Rolfe is ''very'' popular with shippers and seems to get shipped with every other Disney leads, such as Belle, Cinderella, Jane and Ariel, and even Non-Disney ones, such as Odette and Anastasia.
32* Jack Frost from ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians''. He's been shipped with his Guardian teammates, their sidekicks (especially Babytooth), the villain, the children who believe in him, characters who only appeared in the books, Merida along with the rest of their Fanfic/RiseOfTheBraveTangledDragons cohorts, the supporting characters from those movies, several [[CrossoverShip Crossover Ships]] besides including characters from [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 a certain movie starring another cryokinetic]], and many many many Mary Sue [=OC=]s.
33* ''WesternAnimation/SinbadLegendOfTheSevenSeas'':
34** Marina is a popular character for Non/Disney crossover videos. She's been shipped with a large portion of Disney's traditionally animated characters and a large number of Disney-esque characters as well.
35** Eris is a ship magnet for villainous characters. She also gets shipped with a lot of heroic characters.
36** Sinbad gets shipped with many characters in crossover videos.
37* [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]] seems to be this for the Disney Villains, having been paired with [[WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}} Chernabog]], [[{{WesternAnimation/Hercules}} Hades]], [[{{WesternAnimation/Aladdin}} Jafar]], and [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan Captain Hook]] in works such as ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' or Ride/DisneyThemeParks shows or related media. There's even a ship between her and [[WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron the Horned King]]
38** Hell, one fanfic writer even ships Maleficent with [[WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective PROFESSOR RATIGAN]]; though thankfully [[ForcedTransformation she has that Maleficent turned Ratigan into a human man]] so no, um, [[Main/HotSkittyonWailordAction "weird stuff"]] happened.
39* The original ''WesternAnimation/TheSwanPrincess'' film often gets overlooked, however Odette is a very popular character amongst shippers. She gets used a lot in CrossoverShip {{Fan Vid}}s.
40* Flynn and ''especially'' Rapunzel from ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}''. Rapunzel was the previous fandom bandwagon before Elsa, and still is shipped to bits. The fact Flynn and Rapunzel are HappilyMarried is carefully ignored in many fanworks. Some of the more popular Punzie pairings are her and: Elsa, Anna, and Hans from ''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'', the Once-ler from ''WesternAnimation/TheLorax2012'', Jack from ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians'', Merida from ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'', and Cass from ''WesternAnimation/TangledTheSeries''.
41* ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'': Just take a look around [[https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=jim+%20hawkins+%20crossover&aq=f YouTube]] or Website/DeviantART for Jim Hawkins; the poor kid's been paired with nearly every heroine in theatrical animation (and some of the guys); among them, [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 Ariel]], [[WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire Audrey]] and [[WesternAnimation/QuestForCamelot Kayley]], the three most popular crossover girlfriends for him and [[WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}} Dimitri]] seeming to be the most popular boyfriend, which is not even getting into the OCs. Jim works especially well because he is one of the few Disney protagonists not to suffer from ArtisticAge. He looks and acts like a 14-16[[note]]A deleted scene shows that he's 15 but he has a VagueAge in the final product[[/note]] year old, which makes him old enough to ship with late teen and adult characters but also young enough to ship with early teen and preteen characters.
42* Fix It Felix Jr. from ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' has launched a whole ton of ships in the fandom.
43* Thanks to the film's more apparent implied romance than its predecessor, Miles by the time of ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse'' has been shipped with pretty much almost everyone in the main cast (which also popularized the "[[MemeticMutation Miles got the rizz]]" meme), from [[ImpliedLoveInterest Gwen]], [[ShipTease Margo]], [[ShipsThatPassInTheNight Peni]], [[HoYay Hobie, Pavitr]], [[MentorShip Peter]], [[FoeYayShipping Miguel, the Spot]], and even [[spoiler: [[AlternateSelfShipping his alternate self.]]]]
