Ariel's popularity already died down after Jasmine and Belle came along. of course being a DP u gotta be popular, but Elsa's number of merchandise can rival the entire DP franchise alone. so unless it dies down by Moana, or Moana gets even more popular, or they coronate them when Frozen 2 comes out.

and btw, DP franchise launched in 2000, about 20 years after Ariel appeared. before 2000, there was no such thing as Disney Princess.
