Disney Family Tree: Mickey and Minnie have...what???

So, ever wonder where all the family of the Disney staple characters are?

Ever notice how we mostly see nephews, uncles, girlfriends of the same species, a few fathers and a few mothers?

Mickey Mouse has nephews and a girlfriend called Minnie Mouse, who he NEVER marries as far as I know.

Let's talk about that! (GMM reference)

So according to Wikipedia, Mickey Mouse has an older sister "Amelia Fieldmouse" or another name is "Felicity Fieldmouse". I've certainly never known about this. Did you guys know? Here's what she looks like.

Which name do you think suits her best?

She has extra hair!! :0

If you cut her hair, it's Mickey dressed up
like a girl.

Probably scolding her two sons.
Yeah, she looks like a mom.

This sister has twin sons Mortimer "Morty" and Ferdinand "Ferdie" who have also been called Morty and Monty.

I'm guessing because they are always called "Morty and Ferdie"
that the blue overalls one is Morty and the red overalls one is Ferdie.

Older versions, it was the hat that told you who was who.
Personally, I like the older version face.
They look a lot less like shorter Mickeys.

Mickey Mouse has up to 14 nephews (cuz they're mice and mice have lots of kids at one time). Some other names for the nephews are Marmaduke (wha da heck kind of name is that!) and even a niece, Maisie(which rhymes with Daisie...Duck).

Mickey also has, apparently a "blonde city cousin" (Wikipedia: Mickey Mouse family) often referred to as blonde but other times as Madeline Mouse.

Lemme see if I can find a picture of this cousin. She appeared only between April 14 to July 5, 1941 in a comic strip (Wiki: Mickey Mouse Family). Lemme see now...

Oh mah gawd! :0

I expected her to look a bit more...non-creepy... :/
She looks like Minnie Mouse had a bad fashion day.
Does her outfit look a little green to you?

Finally, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit is Mickey's older half brother (as you all know!)

So,
Mickey Mouse's Family
Oswald (older half brother)
Amelia Fieldmouse (older sister)
Morty Fieldmouse (nephew)
Ferdie Fieldmouse (nephew)
Marmaduke (nephew)
Maisie (niece)
Madeline Mouse (blonde cousin)
up to 14 other nephews (ambiguous "them" :P )

Minnie Mouse, Mickey's girlfriend, also has family.

First, for some reason, we know she has a father called Marcus Mouse.

Newsbreak, he smokes.
Don't smoke, future dads.
Looks more like a grandfather mouse to me.

She also has grandparents Marshal Mouse and Matilda Mouse though it's unclear which side grandparents they are (her father's? mother's?)

Minnie ALSO has twins as relatives. Twin nieces. Funny how Mickey is a male and has nephews, Minnie is a female and has nieces...like, girls can have nephews, too!

...ok, back on track. Her nieces are called Millie and Melody Mouse (and they look JUST LIKE HER!) have also been named Pammy and Tammy but it is unclear if these twins are the same set of twins (Millie and Melody) because apparently some writer got confused.

Millie and Melody.
I think Millie changed her outfit because... 

This is Minnie and her nieces.

This is Millie.
She looks shy and maybe an introvert.

The green outfit is Melody.
She looks outgoing and maybe an extrovert.

Minnie's family is FULL of twins. There's rumor that there are teenage twins, Lily and Tiny. If I was Tiny, I'd change my name to Maia and yes, you will go to the article in the link and learn about Thumbelina while you're at it :P

Italy, yes, Italy, and Brazil have been oh so kind enough to give Minnie another niece cuz she doesn't have as many young relatives as her boyfriend (he's got 14!)

They called her Zizi. Cute :) But then this could have just been another name for Melody. We will never know because Wikipedia is clueless.

Finally, we come to the apparent end of the Mouse family. Minnie has an uncle "from whom she inherits an estate" (Wiki: Mickey Mouse family). His name is Mortimer Mouse. And NO, Wiki says Mickey's nephew Morty has nothing to do with Minnie's uncle. I think Mortimer was just Disney's favorite name at the time.

I mean, why else would you make it look like someone named your nephew after your girlfriend's uncle? Besides, this "estate" we speak of that sounds so important and rich is just a ranch anyway. But this guy looks rich. I mean, that jolly stomach of his. Rich guys in cartoons always eat too much.

(side note: Minnie also has a narcissistic ex-boyfriend called Mortimer Mouse as well. He's actually more rat-like than mouse-like.

Yup, I remember this guy. He always says mean things to Mickey. He is terrible.

                                                            Look at that sneeeaky evil face!        )
And yes, I did just put two pics in a parentheses.

Minnie Mouse's Family
Marcus Mouse (father)
Marshal Mouse (grandfather)
Matilda Mouse (grandmother)
Millie Mouse (twin to Melody, niece)
Melody Mouse (twin to Millie, niece)
Pammy?
Tammy?
Lily (teenage niece)
Tiny (teenage niece)
Zizi (Italian/Brazilian? niece)
Mortimer Mouse (uncle)

That about sums it up! :D

WAIT A MOMENT! I just realized that Mickey and Minnie have the same last name.

But they are boyfriend and girlfriend, right?

Mickey's older sister's last name is Fieldmouse. Could Mickey's last name actually be Fieldmouse??? Or did his sister change her last name to her husband's when she got married?

There are so many other "mouse" last names you can make. "Graymouse", "Whitemouse", "Blackmouse", "Brownmouse", "Grassmouse", "Wheatmouse" etc., etc.....

Am I thinking too much? But you DO wanna know, right?

EXTRA RESEARCH! :D

Oh yeah :D

Mickey and Minnie did, sort of, get married, kinda, sorta.

"The man who served as the voice of Walt Disney’s iconic Mickey mouse for over 30 years, Wayne Allwine, was married to the woman who voices Minnie Mouse, Russi Taylor," (says this website).

But what about the actual two? The car-two-n? (see what I did there? :P )

"According to Walt Disney, Mickey and Minnie Mouse have never been married on screen. But, in 1933, during an interview with Film Pictorial, Walt said, “In private life, Mickey is married to Minnie... What it really amounts to is that Minnie is, for screen purposes, his leading lady.” " (Disney Wikia: Mickey Mouse).

So now the cartoon characters have "off-screen private lives". Goodness gracious pooh! What has this come to? I don't know, how 'bout you?

Rhyming so intended it's not even funny...or maybe it is :P

Mickey and Minnie are married. Just not on screen. Okay. I can go with that. I can go with the idea that all those Disney shows are just characters acting as characters on screen.

Yeah sure.

*gives unconvinced look*

er so like some meta-tv what-ever ish?

*still confus*

*but eventually moves on*

I haven't addressed the other characters in this post because this post became longer than I expected it to become...

It became what it was not expected to become *says in exaggerated theatrical voice like Shakespeare or some ish*

Keep a look out for a family tree of other iconic Disney characters :)

See ya later, alligators!
