About Disney’s Chinese name

This is one of the most frequently asked questions. You must often see “Disney” and “Disney”. But what exactly is the difference between them?

It turns out that before 1995, the Disney names in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan had different pronunciations and translations in the local languages. Here is a list

Mainland China: Disney - Disney, Walt Disney - Walt Disney

Hong Kong: Disney - Disney, Walt Disney - Helu·Disney

Taiwan: Disney - Disney, Walt Disney - Walt Disney

But in 1995, in order to unify the Chinese market, Disney decided to use the name "Disney" uniformly in China after serious discussions. That is, the following

Unified official Chinese name: Disney - Disney, Walt Disney - Walt Disney

I still remember that it was in the 1995 issue 5 of "Mickey Mouse" magazine (cover In the notification column of "Mickey Mouse" (blue tone, the character is Donald Duck), there is an article called "About the name change of "Disney"", which first announced this news to the majority of Disney fans, and from 1995 Starting from the 6th issue, "Mickey Mouse" fully adopts the name "Disney". (For example, the slogan "Real Original Disney Cartoons" on the cover turns out to be "Disney"). We really applaud this behavior!

But unfortunately, due to various reasons, the name "Disney" has not been promoted as it should in mainland China like in Taiwan. For example, most media including TV newspapers still use "Disney" a lot. situation, and this entry has not been revised in the authoritative Chinese language dictionary. There are even a few official products using the name "Disney" which is no longer the official translation.

But the fact that Disney is the real official Chinese name cannot be changed. For example, you can see that Disney.com.cn, genuine Disney videos and books all use "Disney".

So as true Disney fans, we will all use the official name "Disney" from now on!
