[Opinions] Re: Can you imagine a child being named Disney?
I have never seen film from Disney. My parents raised me on old Soviet stuff like Soyuzmultfilm or Russian media. It never influence me :/ I can imagine kid called Disney, but it sound very modern and Gen Alpha (or younger) western kid name. I do not like it because of that and because it is very very capitalist (naming your kid after brand).

Have you watched Belka i Strelka or that's too modern/made for western audience?

I have not seen this but probably because it is too western :[ Mostly what I watched as kid was Soyuzmultfilm and sometimes Teremok TV, and rarely cartoons on cable channelsMy favourite cartoon as child was Proverte vashi chasy (Проверьте ваши часы) from 1963
Are you familiar with the 1957 The Snow Queen? I'm curious as to your thoughts on it. I never met a person in real life who has seen this movie. It influenced me a lot as a child and one of the things to get me interested in animation.
