Ariel (Jodi Benson, The Little Mermaid) TTS Computer AI Voice

Princess Ariel is the titular protagonist of Disney's 1989 animated feature film The Little Mermaid. She is the seventh and youngest daughter of King Triton and Queen Athena, rulers of the undersea kingdom of Atlantica. Ariel lived through much of her young life with a passionate - yet forbidden - admiration of the human world and longed to someday experience life on the surface.

Ariel is loosely based on the nameless protagonist of the Danish fairy tale "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Andersen, but unlike the Andersen fairy tale in which the mermaid loses her prince, dies, and gains an immortal soul, the Disney adaptation has a happy ending.

Ariel is the fourth official member of the Disney Princess line-up. She is notable for being the first Disney Princess to be developed after the death of Walt Disney, who incidentally made efforts to adapt The Little Mermaid during his lifetime. She is the first Disney Princess to be developed during the Disney Renaissance.
