According to Rich Moore and Sarah Silverman, Vanellope is 9 years old. However, according to Executive Producer John Lasseter, she is 12 years old.
However, it is hard to tell, as she could have been inspired by the Chibi style (see below).
Vanellope, along with the otherSugar Rushracers, are partly based on theChibistyle; a style used in anime that depicts characters as small, cute and, at most times, childish.
Vanellope is the only main character that never called Ralph by his title 'Wreck-it'.
Vanellope is also the only character who knew about Ralph's origins that didn't accuse him of going/believe he had gone Turbo.
Vanellope's hands only have four fingers, as opposed to Ralph and the other main characters' five.
Vanellope had no memory of being Princess ofSugar Rushbecause Turbo locked up the memories of all the racers, including hers.
Vanellope is the 3rd young Disney Heroine to be openly picked on, bullied and/or ridiculed. The others are Melody and Lilo.
Vanellope's name is actually a portmanteau of "vanilla", a type of dessert flavoring,and "Penelope", a Greek-based girl's name (which means weaver). According to Greek mythology, Penelope was the wife of Odysseus, who was constantly waiting for her husband to return from the battle of Troy and subsequently, his Odyssey. During Odysseus' Odyssey, many people thought that her real husband was dead and sent many suitors to try to marry her, but were ultimately driven out by Odysseus upon his return and proving them to be her real husband. Vanellope also sounds similar to "vanilla bean."
Also, her title, "von", is actually German for "of", which is often used by German nobility.
And plus her last name, "Schweetz", is a pun of the word "sweet" with a slightly German touch. (Schweetz). "Schweetz" may also be the way a young child would pronounce the word "sweets".
Upon close inspection, you will see that Vanellope's skirt is made ofReese's Peanut Butter Cupwrappers.
Although it is stated that Vanellope is unable to leave her game due to her being a glitch, at the endshe can be seen attending Felix and Calhoun's wedding as Calhoun's maid-of-honor. In fact during the credits she can be seen traveling with Ralph, Felix and Calhoun to different video games, this is due to her reintegration after the game reset, leaving her "glitchy" (i.e. capable of teleporting within the game) but no longer a glitch.
When creating Vanellope,she was described as having "a hint of Sarah (Silverman), a hint of Cindy Lou Who, combined with this grubby little Pippi Longstocking moppet kid."
Despite having hazel eyes in the movie, posters, etc., Vanellope can clearly be seen with bright green eyes when she is shown on the side of the cabinet after Ralph throws away his medal.
Interestingly enough, Vanellope is never shown racing in her white tracksuit after she resets the game, nor is she seen racing in her original cart which was stolen by King Candy. It's implied that the kart that she and Ralph created was eventually incorporated into the game and her supposed original (King Candy's) was presumably destroyed when King Candy transformed into a Cy-Bug and was killed.
Vanellope is the only character inSugar Rushwho wears a hoodie, as the other characters wear jackets, and she is also the only one who does not wear a helmet or cap in her head, instead she wears red goggles.
Supposedly, when Vanellope refers to Ralph as "Gladys", she is actually referencing the main antagonist of thePortalseries, GLaDOS. However, if that is true, then she mispronounced the name, as it is most likely pronounced "Glah-Dos", and is actually an acronym.
When Ralph sees Vanellope on the side of the game console, she isn't wearing her dress like the scene where Vanellope gets her code back and finally becomes an actual game character.
Vanellope's princess dress resembles the dresses worn by royal women during the 16th-17th century
Originally, Vanellope was going to have grayish-green skin to show viewers that she was a glitch, but her animators eventually decided against it since they thought it would make her look too much like a zombie.
Also, Vanellope is the only character fromSugar Rushto see in person King Candy's real identity as Turbo; however, she does not seem to know anything about Turbo's origin much less recognize him, whereas the majority of the inhabitants of the video game world do, which can be seen in the cases of Wreck-It Ralph and Fix-It Felix. Thus, it is unknown if Vanellope saw Turbo before he snatched her throne and locked her memories, though another possible theory suggests that Turbo supposedly disappeared years before theSugar Rushgame console was first plugged in the arcade, explaining the girl's ignorance of the rogue racer.
Throughout the whole movie, Ralph usually refers to Vanellope as "kid" instead of her real name. He only refers to her as "Vanellope" twice in the whole film.
Some fans wonder why Vanellope isn't an official Disney Princess, this is due to her young age and fact she didn't want to be a princess and made herself president ofSugar Rushinstead.
Vanellope is the second Disney heroine to be involved in political issues, the first being Aurora.
Vanellope is the third Disney heroine to be unaware that she was a princess.Aurora was the first and Rapunzel was the second.
Vanellope's princess dress vaguely resembles one of the dresses of young Charlotte La Bouff fromThe Princess and the Frog. Whether this was intentional or not, or if the dress was used as the basis for Vanellope's gown design, is unknown.
In her picture at the side of the game, she is shown to be an anime character.
In a reference to video games, Vanellope appears to be an allusion to Midna fromThe Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, as they are both imp-like princesses who both accompany the hero after being cursed by their villains, who are the false rulers of the place they came from. Near the end of their stories, both are revealed to be the true rulers of their respective realms, and remain within their kingdom to allow a new rule from them.
Vanellope is the second well-known Princess to be live in modern world after Princess Leia fromStar Wars. Oddly, Lucas Film (where Stars Wars is from) was bought just 3 days before Wreck-It Ralphwas released in theaters.
In 2013, there were 63 babies name Vanellope in the US, up from zero in previous years.
Vanellope's Latin-American Spanish voice actress isMaria Antonieta de las Nieves, best known for her portrayal of "La Chilindrina" in the highly popular TV show "El Chavo del Ocho".
