What is the name of snow whites prince?

Question

my aunt wants to know...

Answer 1

Although no name was ever given to the Prince, he is usually referred to as "Prince Charming" by us common-folk *lol*

There was a TV show in the late 80s about Snow White and her prince (live action) called "The Charmings."

Answer 2

Just for kicks I'm going to say Charming, lol.

However I want to say not all the pre-Grimm stories had a prince charming, in the original Sleeping Beauty, it was a king who raped her (nothing charming about that, and no prince). You can email me about a link I have to the story.

Answer 3

Although the common assumption is Prince Charming, I don't think the original Brothers Grimm story gave the prince a name.

Here is an interesting tidbit from the Wikipedia entry on Prince Charming:

The Walt Disney animated version of Cinderella that appeared in 1950 is the source of the name in English; in the Charles Perrault version of Cinderella, and in most pre-Disney versions, the prince is not specifically identified as Prince Charming; nor is the character of the Prince named Prince Charming - or for that matter anything else - in the earlier Disney animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937). Since that film appeared, the name has been bestowed upon the highly similar characters who appear in Snow White and Sleeping Beauty. In fact, the princely status of Prince Charming is more important to the plot of this latter tale, since it is his royal status that enables Prince Charming to break the curse that keeps Sleeping Beauty in her supernatural sleep. In Disney's "Sleeping Beauty" (1959) the Prince is named Phillip and never referred to as "Prince Charming". But a number of novels also use this name, as for example Oscar Wilde's work "The Picture of Dorian Gray".

The Wikipedia entry on the story of Snow White also does not identify the prince in the story.

Answer 4

Snow White's Prince doesn't have a name in the Disney Version.  Cinderella's Prince is called Prince Charming.  This is commonly mixed up because Snow White does sing "Everyone could see that the Prince was charming," however, she is not naming him, merely stating he was a charming guy.
