History Fanon / Frozen

* A popular reading is that Elsa is somewhere on the LGBTQIA spectrum - most likely a lesbian, with asexual as another possibility. She has no male love interest, and her storyline is similar to a ComingOutStory. From early childhood, she knows there's something different about her. She tries to hide this part of her, but suffers miserably for it. The day that she embraces this aspect, and fully owns it, is the day that she becomes comfortable in her own skin and happy with herself. We're... we're talking about the ice powers, right? Many reviewers said that "Let it Go" sounds like a proud and jubilant coming-out anthem, especially with lines like "Couldn't keep it in, Heaven knows I've tried," and "''That perfect girl is gone!''". Elsa's arc in ''WesternAnimation/FrozenII'' also has [[RainbowLens parallels]] to a ComingOutStory.

* Oaken being gay is something most of the fandom agrees on. The concept comes from the scene where he says "Woo-hoo, hi family!" and people presumed: A. That is his family. B. The blond man is the only adult. Thus fans consider them a couple with four kids. ''WesternAnimation/OlafsFrozenAdventure'' [[SchrodingersCanon portrays]] the family as Oaken's own but doesn't otherwise specify the relations.
* Many fics portray Elsa as an introverted, socially incompetent {{hikikomori}}. This is frequently used in {{Setting Update}}s (especially ones without magical powers) as a counterpart to Elsa's PowerIncontinence and anxiety about it, with Elsa's depression or anxiety being a major factor, if not the reason, for why she's distant from Anna.

* "Agdar" and "Idunn" are almost always the names chosen for Anna and Elsa's parents when they do show up in a fanfic, based on translation of the Runic inscriptions on their gravestones. These names have since been used in licensed material with [[SpellMyNameWithAnS inconsistent spelling]] from work to work, though eventually the series settled on "Agnarr" and "Iduna".

* Some fans believe Anna has SuperStrength based on several rather amazing feats she does in the movie (such as fighting off the wolves using a sleigh as a weapon, sending Olaf's snow head ''very'' high in the air with a simple kick, accidentally flinging a bronze bust across the room and into a cake, and her high leaps during "For the First Time in Forever"), which were probably only supposed to be RuleOfCool.

** One fan theory even believes that Rapunzel and Elsa were the sisters and that after Gothel took Rapunzel, Elsa was left with Anna's parents for safe keeping. ''Frozen II'' josses this by having others comment on Elsa's resemblance to her parents.
* Speaking of connecting Disney universes, a theory was that the parents survive the shipwreck... and end up living in the African jungle raising their new baby who would eventually become {{WesternAnimation/Tarzan}}. That theory was initially a joke made up by one of the movie's directors in response to someone telling them about the previous theory, purposefully far-fetched and never meant to be taken seriously. Because the fans considered these crossovers SeriousBusiness, many took this as dead-serious WordOfGod. Chris Buck has repeatedly had to debunk it. It's become firmly jossed with the sequel - Agdar and Iduna went north looking for [[spoiler:Ahtohallan]], not south, and were lost at sea.

* Virtually nothing about Hans' 12 older brothers is known, but any fan depiction of them is guaranteed to include ''at least'' one pair of [[AlwaysIdenticalTwins identical twins]]. Most versions will also have the majority of the brothers be bullies, with one token nice brother. The [[ExtendedUniverse tie-in]] book ''Literature/AFrozenHeart'' [[WordOfDante also includes a pair of twins among the brothers]], although fraternal ones, and one brother who treats Hans nicely.

* On a more NSFW line of thought, a lot of fanworks portray Elsa as being into some level of dom/sub kink. [[PowerfulPeopleAreSubs She's rarely ever presented as a dom herself]], though.

* Elsa suffers from frequent night terrors and nightmares, usually about either accidentally killing Anna or Anna not unfreezing.

* Elsa being born in summer while Anna was born in winter. This actually comes from a misconception and became common for the irony of their birthdays: Elsa's coronation is in summer, so many thought she was crowned on (or near) her 21st birthday. She wasn't. WordOfGod is that Elsa was born during the winter solstice while Anna was born during the summer solstice. "WesternAnimation/FrozenFever" supports this, with Anna's birthday clearly being in a warm season.

* It's generally assumed amongst fans that Kristoff faces discrimination because he's Sami. "Reindeers Are Better Than People" implies that he's gotten bullied in the past, however it is never given a reason. ''Frozen II'' makes this more ambiguous by revealing that the Northuldra are FantasyCounterpartCulture Sami, but Kristoff isn't Northuldra.

* Elsa views her snow creations as her offspring.

* Oaken being gay is something most of the fandom agrees on. The concept comes from the scene where he says "Woo-hoo, hi family!" and people presumed: A. That is his family. B. The blond man is the only adult. Thus fans consider them a couple [[HasTwoMommies with four kids]]. ''WesternAnimation/OlafsFrozenAdventure'' [[SchrodingersCanon portrays]] the family as Oaken's own but doesn't otherwise specify the relations.

* In many fan works, Hans's family would be shown as being utterly [[DysfunctionalFamily dysfunctional]] with his parents being apathetic of the abuse, pick favorites amongst their 13 sons (causing the rest to develop MiddleChildSyndrome). One of the parents (typically his father) could be a domestic abuser. The 12 older sons would also be married for political reasons by the time Hans is an adult, but they also inherit their father's superficial charm and apathy. The Westergaard clan would also be depicted as being cruel towards their subjects. ''Literature/AFrozenHeart'' leans towards this.

** Additionally, since Iduna bears a resemblance to the Queen of Corona, some fans have concluded that they're sisters, and therefore Rapunzel is Elsa and Anna's cousin. Alternately, some theorize it could be King Agnarr who is related to one of the rulers of Corona (usually the queen). ''Frozen II'' josses that Iduna is related to Rapunzel's parents, but it's still open to the idea that Agnarr is.

* In "Frozen Fever", Elsa is sick with a disease that's described as a "cold", yet at one point, she behaves in a very out-of-it manner that in real life could only be caused by disease if the person was running a fever too high to be caused by a cold. Fans tend to explain this by suggesting she took Oaken's "cold remedy" he sells to the sisters, which had drugs in it.

* If you don't ship Elsa with [[IncestYayShipping Anna]], [[FoeYayShipping Hans]], [[LesYay Honeymaren]], or your random original character, and don't see her as {{asexual|ity}} and/or aromantic, it's also common to have her [[CelibateHero other times consciously avoid romance]].

* As part of her CuteClumsyGirl appeal, Anna is almost always shown to be a LethalChef. More than one fan has commented on how her cooking is enough to make someone's stomach hurt for days on no end and would always make a lot of mess in the kitchen. ''ComicBook/FrozenBreakingBoundaries'', an ExtendedUniverse comic, [[WordOfSaintPaul portrays]] Anna as at least being able to bake muffins.

* Queen Marisol from the licensed ''Literature/AnnaAndElsa'' books is AmbiguouslyBrown but fans see her as either Arabic or [[LatinoIsBrown latina]]. She has a Spanish name, but all of her subjects have Arabic names. One way of reconciling this is to postulate that her kingdom, Eldora, is an AlternateUniverse version of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Sahara Spanish Sahara]] which is independent of Spain but still has a Spanish-descended monarchy.

* Anna's hair color is [[HairColorDissonance notoriously vague]]. Most fans consider her a redhead and Elsa a platinum blonde. Official books refer to her as a "strawberry blonde" (although scriptwriter/co-director Jennifer Lee calls the color "strawberry brown" and the ''Frozen II'' art-book calls Anna's similarly colored father "auburn") and Elsa as a "white-blonde".
* The notion that Anna and Elsa often share a bed post-movie is ever-present in the fandom. Because they want to spend time together, and often because of [[FrightInducedBunkmate nightmares]], one often sneaks into the others room at night. Many works even have one permanently move into the other's room (usually Anna into Elsa's). The sequel shows that they do this at least occasionally, such as when one of them needs cheering up and comfort.

* Most fanworks have Elsa and Anna [[ParentalTitleCharacterization refer to their parents as "Mama" and "Papa"]] while alone together. When around others they'll use "Mother" and "Father" instead. The only times they referred to their parents in the film were when they were children. It's unknown what they use as adults. ''Literature/AFrozenHeart'' has Anna using "Mama" and "Papa" but ''Frozen II'' has both sisters using "Mother" and "Father".

* Pretty much every fanfic with a bath scene has Anna and/or Elsa having hot water brought to their bath manually. This fanon is probably due to [[AluminiumChristmasTrees ignorance]] more than anything though. Royals in many countries did have working water pipes in the 1840s The ExtendedUniverse book ''Literature/AnnaAndElsa: All Hail The Queen'' [[WordOfSaintPaul portrays]] Arendelle as having working plumbing (Anna and Elsa [[WrenchWench even helped fix it]]).
* Most fan-works have Elsa switching between fabric clothes and ice clothes in her everyday life. The circumstances differ from fic to fic though: Sometimes she wears fabric clothes in only formal situations, other times she only wears fabric clothes while doing queenly things and wears ice gowns when relaxing, while other fans opt to have her wear ice gowns only on rare occasions and wear fabric on default. Most supplementary material completely avoids this topic by [[LimitedWardrobe only depicting her in her one ice gown]], although ''WesternAnimation/OlafsFrozenAdventure'' has her wearing a fabric dress for the occasion (which the novelization establishes was a present from Anna) and ''Frozen II'' shows her in various fabric dresses.

* Given the fact that the storm is the reason why their parents died, it is very common for fans to assume that Anna has a {{fear of thunder}}storms due to bringing her bad memories and along with having nightmares of past events, is often used as the reason why Anna seeks her own sister for some much needed comfort.

* In fanfiction, Elsa usually insists that she should [[AltarDiplomacy marry with Arendelle, not her own desires, in mind]]. Anna of course believes that she should instead MarryForLove.
* As part of her CuteClumsyGirl appeal, Anna is almost always shown to be a LethalChef and a terrible cook. More than one fan has commented on how her cooking is enough to make hurt someone's stomach for days to no end and would always make a lot of mess in the kitchen. ''ComicBook/FrozenBreakingBoundaries'', an ExtendedUniverse comic, [[WordOfSaintPaul portrays]] Anna as at least being able to bake muffins.
* Elsa is also often portrayed as just as bad at cooking due to spending so much time inside her room.

* Prior to ''Frozen Fever'' showing Elsa ill, many fans assumed that Elsa was physically unable to get sick.

* Given the fact that the storm is the reason why their parents died during a diplomatic trip, it is very common for fans to assume that Anna has a {{fear of thunder}}storms due to bringing her bad memories and along with having nightmares of past events, is often used as the reason why Anna seeks her own sister for some much needed comfort.
