Okay, if you've watched the TV series, there was an episode called "Metal Fish," which is where she met Hans Christian Andersen. The ending of the episode revealed that he wrote the book based on her to repay her rescuing him. That, as well as the TV series taking place at least a year before the events of the film, means that Ariel was born around 1810-1811, since thats the amount of years between that episode and the publication of the book.
