- 9 has 5, because he's VERY touchy-feely with the other characters, and 7, because she's the only girl.
- Maleficent seems to be this for the Disney Villains, having been paired with Chernabog, Hades, Jafar, and Captain Hook in works such as House of Mouse or Disney Theme Parks shows or related media. There's even a ship between her and the Horned King
- Hell, one fanfic writer even ships Maleficent with PROFESSOR RATIGAN; though thankfully she has that Maleficent turned Ratigan into a human man so no, um, "weird stuff" happened.
- Treasure Planet: Just take a look around YouTube
or DeviantArt for Jim Hawkins; the poor kid's been paired with nearly every heroine in theatrical animation (and some of the guys); among them, Ariel, Audrey and Kayley, the three most popular crossover girlfriends for him and 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 Artistic Age. He looks and acts like a 14-16note 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.
- Poor Alice is the Fan Vid community's Lolita.
- Merida from Brave launches a Crossover Ship practically every minute. She's got her own Portmanteau Couple Name with Hiccup (Mericcup), and has been paired with Hawkeye, Flynn Rider and Rapunzel, Katniss, the aforementioned Jim Hawkins, and all three of the suitors from her own film.
- Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians. 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, the aforementioned Merida along with the rest of their Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons cohorts, the supporting characters from those movies, several Crossover Ships besides including characters from a certain movie starring another cryokinetic, and many many many Mary Sue OCs.
- Fix It Felix Jr. from Wreck-It Ralph has launched a whole ton of ships in the fandom.
- Frozen:
- Elsa has been shipped with all the main characters of her own movie, most prominently Anna, Kristoff, Hans and Honeymaren, as well as an uncountable number of crossover ships, including the aforementioned Jack Frost and Pitch Black, the Ice King, the Lich King, Frozone, practically any other ice-themed character the fans could think of
, Rapunzel and Flynn, Merida, Wreck-It Ralph (note: There's even a degree of Word of God 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), Loki, Hiccup, Belle and Smaug. That's not even mentioning all the Original Characters. 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 this fanart
featuring Elsa/The Winter Soldier. When the licensed books introduced Princess Marisol people were quick to ship her with Elsa, not helped by the minor Les Yay they had already. Parodied quite often in the fanfic Dear Fanfiction Writers
. The majority of Elsa's letters consist of her
complaining
about
being shipped
with everyone
.
- 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.
- Elsa has been shipped with all the main characters of her own movie, most prominently Anna, Kristoff, Hans and Honeymaren, as well as an uncountable number of crossover ships, including the aforementioned Jack Frost and Pitch Black, the Ice King, the Lich King, Frozone, practically any other ice-themed character the fans could think of
- The aforementioned Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon has had a resurgence in Crossover Shipping with the sequel coming out soon. The fact that his older appearance in the film has been considered by many to be quite attractive has only served to help him in this case.
- The Once-ler from the 2012 The Lorax 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 FaceHeel Turn and Evil Costume Switch, the two sides of him are often treated as two entirely separate characters, thus shipping Once-ler and Greed-ler.
- The Lion King (1994):
- Scar has been paired with Zira, Sarafina (Nala's mom), Sarabi, Nala (which is canon in a deleted scene and is why Nala ran away to hunt), random background lionesses, tons of OCs, even both Simba and Mufasa. However, many of these pairings exist not because fans find them romantic, but to explain the parentage of other characters.
- Simba, Nala, Kiara, and Kovu have been shipped with various characters from The Lion King, as well as various Crossover Ships.
- Fear from Inside Out 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 Characters and self-insert characters.
- Big Hero 6: Both Hiro AND Tadashi have been shipped with various others on numerous occasions, INCLUDING each other. Some popular characters, excluding the characters from the movie itself:
- Tadashi: Elsa, Anna, Nani (Lilo & Stich), Hiccup, and Jack Frost.
- Hiro is probably the better example: Violet (The Incredibles), Penny (Bolt), Vanellope, Elsa, Anna, Tip (Home), and Riley (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 squicked.
- Being the protagonist, Tinkerbell from Disney Fairies has been shipped with a lot of the major fairies. She's even paired with her twin sister, Periwinkle.
- Both Jasmine and the titular character of Aladdin are frequently shipped in Crossover Ship works.
- Esmeralda from The Hunchback of Notre Dame has been shipped with Quasimodo, Frollo, Jasmine from Aladdin, Aladdin himself, various The Prince of Egypt characters, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, Jim from Treasure Planet, Elsa from Frozen, numerous Disney princes, and generally various Disney-esque characters.
- Flynn and especially Rapunzel from Tangled. Rapunzel was the previous fandom bandwagon before Elsa, and still is shipped to bits. The fact Flynn and Rapunzel are Happily Married is carefully ignored in many fanworks. Some of the more popular Punzie pairings are her and: Elsa, Anna, and Hans from Frozen, the Once-ler from The Lorax, Jack from Rise of the Guardians, Merida from Brave, and Cass from Tangled: The Series.
- Ariel from The Little Mermaid is no slouch in this department. She is traditionally the most popular Disney Princess after all. She has probably been paired with every prince and princess. Jim Hawkins from Treasure Planet, Nani Pelekai from Lilo & Stitch, Peter Pan, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians, Megara from Hercules, and Elsa from Frozen are just a few of them. Her daughter Melody is a Toy Ship magnet herself.
- Pocahontas fans 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 one of the less popular Disney sequels, John Rolfe is very popular with shippers and seems to get shipped with every Disney lead.
- Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas:
- 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.
- Eris is a ship magnet for villainous characters. She also gets shipped with a lot of heroic characters.
- Sinbad gets shipped with many characters in crossover videos.
- The original The Swan Princess film often gets overlooked, however Odette is a very popular character amongst shippers. She gets used a lot in Crossover Ship Fan Vids.
- The Great Prince of the Forest as portrayed in Bambi II is surprisingly common ship bait. One of the more popular ones is him and Belle from Beauty and the Beast. For those not into shipping a deer with a human, there's also plenty of shipping with The Lion King (1994), Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and Lady and the Tramp characters.
- The one thing everyone remembers about The Fox and the Hound 2 is Dixie. Unsurprisingly, she's been shipped with almost every major Disney dog, the characters from Balto, and even Thomas and Duchess from The Aristocats.
- Sara from The 3 Wise Men is popular amongst fanvidders.
