Disney Characters Direct Translation?

Today in class, we were reading about the history of Walt Disney in Chinese... seems fitting. Since Disney charters are so hard to pronounce, there's a handy Chinese interpretation for all your Chinese Disney movie watching needs. For example:

Donald Duck:唐老鸭-Tang[dynasty] Old Duck
Cinderella:灰姑娘-Grey Lady
Mickey Mouse:米老鼠-Rice Rat

Close enough.
