Why is Mulan called Fa Mulan?
Curiously, Disney changed Mulan’s name to Fa Mulan. Mulan means “magnolia,” which is why magnolia flowers are so prominent in that movie. In the original poem, she is only referred to as Mulan, which is a given name. Her surname was added later.
How is Fa Mulan a princess?
Mulan is the first Disney Princess to be based on a legend (that of Hua Mulan) and the second to not be based on a fairy tale (the other being Pocahontas).
