 However if we move away from the movie Frozen and back to the original Snow Queen story, then the heroine's name was Gerda. Now where it get's kind of hinky was Gerda was not the Snow Queen's sister. But Snow Queen fans can't have it all. I'm actually really excited as a Snow Queen and Frozen fan that they are using OUAT to both respect the original fairy tale, and make it work with the new and amazing movie.



 Except they are NOT making any connection between the Queen being Gerda from the Snow Queen - WHILE dumping on a character that was there. The MOVIE already did an easter egg nod to the Snow Queen by having Gerda and Kai in Arendelle as adults all along. Gerda had lines in several scenes and was the Arendelle citizen who was also completely taken in by Hans. It looks like the writer/producer just read the credits where the Queen was not listed (because Jennifer Lee spoke only one line for her) and assumed that Gerda was the Queen's name.



 No. They named her Gerda on purpose. They are going to revamp the old fairytale. Gerda had her best friend taken by the Snow Queen in the original. OUAT is going to play on that by turning the best friend into Gerda's sisters. The Snow Queen is still the vilian but in the same way Luke Skywalker was told that Vader murdered his father. The Snow Queen destroyed/took Ingrid.
