Background
- "At this signal, you only have two choices. Woo and marry a rich immature lady, or... Get a job!"
- ―Lawrence to Naveen
Equally mentioned above, Prince Naveen is native to the kingdom of Maldonia, where he lives alongside his parents, the king and queen (whose names are unknown), and his younger brother, Prince Ralphie. Naveen is quite the freeloader and has spent all his life being waited on, never learning to exercise a thing for himself, including activities as basic equally simple cooking. His parents were in all likelihood, too decorated running the kingdom to accept time with their son, equally Naveen stated during his meeting with Tiana that his mother had servants read him stories earlier bed every dark, implying she was never available to do so. Merely despite this, they were at least aware of his behavior as, by the fourth dimension of adulthood, the King and Queen of Maldonia finally had enough of the prince'due south lazy antics and excessive partying, and disinherited him from the royal family. Fifty-fifty if his parents would non alter their minds, Naveen now had to find some way to get self-sufficient in lodge to survive. Lawrence, still, suggested a way he would non have to worry virtually maturity, which was to find a young woman with money, and ally her. Failing that, Naveen would ultimately have to accept becoming self-sufficient, every bit Lawrence put information technology...to get a task.
Personality
Though not malicious, or specially antagonistic, Naveen was extremely spoiled, lazy, and vain at the start of the film, as a result of his privileged upbringing. Arriving in New Orleans with intent to marry Charlotte La Bouff for her wealth (admitting forcibly), Naveen's only concern was "living life to the fullest" past partying every bit much as possible—preferably with a pleasurable visitor, as vocalized during "When We're Man". He had a potent disgust towards work or labor and hotly refused to e'er appoint in such activities, making attempts to avoid doing so at all costs. This would often annoy surrounding characters such equally the prince's valet, Lawrence, who Naveen unintentionally humiliated for a number of years, to the point where Lawrence was driven to vengeful villainy. In reality, Naveen simply wanted his pushy valet to bring together in the festivities, but he was bullheaded to ii factors. Commencement, Lawrence was antisocial and was ill at ease in such environs. 2d, while Naveen avoided piece of work, Lawrence had to do a lot of it, especially waiting on Naveen, and it reached a point of frustration for the overworked butler.
Every bit mentioned, Naveen was also extremely vain, constantly commenting on his looks, his ability to arouse women, and was seemingly stuck with a mindset that all women were putty in his hands, in terms of romantic interest. He was also mentioned (in a exhibitionistic way) to accept dated "thousands" of women over the class of his lifetime, thus far, additionally commenting during "When Nosotros're Human" that having "a redhead on [his] left arm, a brunette on [his] right, and a blonde or ii" to exist examples of a perfect way to enjoy life, indicating that he was a heavy philanderer. Yet, every bit Naveen connected to interact and spend time with Tiana during the course of their adventures, Naveen loses his philandering behavior equally Tiana becomes the first girl with whom he has ever fallen in beloved with and wants to settle downward.
Naveen was also incapable of admitting his wrongdoings, and would instead put blame on someone else should problem occur, such equally blaming Tiana for "lying to him" near being a princess (fifty-fifty though she never told him she was a princess), afterward their failed attempt to break the frog curse. When Tiana later on states they are going to return to New Orleans and undo the mess he got them into, he states he was "not the one parading around with a phony distortion tiara." He also refused to admit his foolishness in easily trusting a shady effigy such as Dr. Facilier, the man responsible for the curse, by claiming the witch doctor was "very charismatic", making his schemes irresistibly tempting. However, Naveen grows take to responsibility for his mistakes and learn from them during his fourth dimension every bit a frog.
Despite his shortcomings, Naveen is not every bit confident as he would like to believe and can exist quite humble, devoted, and romantic. The potent-willed and aggressive Tiana would heavily influence the prince, and she would unknowingly bring out the best in his graphic symbol, motivating him to alter his dreams and make something of himself. From that moment frontward, Naveen was no longer concerned with parties and lazing, but instead set his sights on working to both better himself and to help make Tiana'south dreams a reality, becoming a selfless individual who likewise valued the happiness of others. When he finally does admit his shortcomings, he appears very aback of himself, simply becomes a dedicated person to make a living for himself and to make Tiana happy.
Free-spirited and lively, Naveen has a positive tendency of bringing joy to others. While initially a nuisance to Tiana, Naveen was quick to become shut friends with Louis and Ray, as well as New Orleans' common citizens, who all enjoyed the prince's fun-loving nature. Naveen returned the affections past serving equally a supportive friend, championing Louis' dream to become a musician, Ray's beloved for what appeared to be a mere star, and even offered to buy all of his new acquaintances in New Orleans a beverage, just for the sake of doing so, despite not being able to afford such a promise. He tends to have a laid-back attitude towards life and never lets things upset him too much - he does non even appear overly upset at being turned into a frog but instead treats it more than like a new experience. Tiana would also come to savour Naveen's antics, having been influenced to occasionally let loose and enjoy life, herself, past the prince—something she originally refused to practice, to an unhealthy degree. He was too passionate virtually the art of music, specifically jazz music, finding it beautiful, and was shown to highly admire and recognize New Orleans equally the birthplace of the genre.
