A character trivia of Princess Elena.

Trivia

 * Elena is Disney's first Latin-inspired princess.
 * Elena is Disney's second oldest princess, as she is chronologically fifty-eight years old while being biologically seventeen due to being imprisoned in the Amulet of Avalor for forty-one years and didn't age during that time.
 * The first would be Kida from Atlantis: The Lost Empire, who is over eight thousand years old, and the third being Elena's sister Princess Isabel.
 * Elena and Zita Flores share the same last name.
 * Elena's voice actress Aimee Carrero is known for the Romantic television sitcom Young & Hungry, and coincidentally, her character hares the same first name with Princess Sofia.
 * The age gap between Elena and Isabel is six years.
 * In "First Day of Rule", it is revealed that Elena had been trapped inside the Amulet of Avalor for forty-one years.
 * It has been assumed by Zuzo that during her long imprisonment Elena had absorbed some of the amulet's magic, making her magical and able to see Zuzo without the assistance of a wizard.
 * The flower that Elena wears in her hair is an Apricot Mallow, which grows in Sonora and Baja California in Northwest Mexico.
 * In Latin America, "Princesa Elena" is also the name given to Princess Eilonwy.
 * Elena means shining light, or bright one.
 * Funnily enough, Elena was still in mortal peril even when she was trapped in the Amulet of Avalor.
 * Had Princess Ivy's attempts to destroy it succeeded, Elena would more than likely have perished.
 * Much like Princess Sofia, she is not officially considered part of the Disney Princess line-up due to being a television princess starting out with a television movie instead of a theatrical movie.
