The official Disney Prince line-up: (from left to right) Naveen, Shang, Aladdin, Eric, Phillip, Florian, Charming, Adam, John Smith and Eugene. (Note: Kristoff is not in the picture because this picture was made before Frozen.)
Disney Princes Challenge
From Disney Wiki: The Disney Princes are an official lineup of male protagonists and deuteragonists who are the love-interests of the Disney Princesses. These include The Prince, Prince Charming, Prince Phillip, Prince Eric, Prince Adam and Prince Naveen who are each born of royal heritage, as well as Aladdin and Flynn Rider, who become royalty by marrying a princess. Li Shang and John Smith are not considered royalty but are both still considered a "prince" because their respective love interest, Mulan and Pocahontas, are official Disney Princesses.
