Who are the best female cartoon characters from Cartoon Network? I have shared my favorite female cartoon characters from Nickelodeon and Disney in previous posts. Now here is a list of my favorite female characters from Cartoon Network. Unfortunately, the list is not as long as I was more into Nickelodeon and Disney shows. Also, it is surprising just how little Cartoon Network has in female characters, more so with the older shows. Hopefully, you’ll recognize some of these characters and enjoyed them as much as I did as a kid. Here are the best female cartoon characters from Cartoon Network.
1. Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup (Powerpuff Girls)
This was one of my favorite shows as a kid and the other girls at school were into Powerpuff Girls too. Everyone else either liked Blossom or Bubbles, but I favored Buttercup the most as she was the tomboy of the group and one of the best female cartoon characters from Cartoon Network.
2. Dee Dee (Dexter’s Laboratory)
The interaction between Dexter and Dee Dee was hilarious. Dee Dee was great as the contradiction of the main character, creating a fun balance between different personalities.
3. Lee, Marie, and May/Kankers (Ed, Edd, N Eddy)
Even though Ed, Edd, and Eddy did not find the Kanker sisters attractive, I always thought they were a good match for at least Ed and Eddy.
4. Nazz and Sarah (Ed, Edd, N Eddy)
Sarah served well as the bothersome sister for Ed and Nazz was the gritty but even-tempered character in the show, giving some stability to all the shenanigans.
5. Little Suzy (Johnny Bravo)
Being a sweet, well-mannered child, it was always odd to see her hang out with Johnny Bravo who didn’t want anything to do with her. However, the two characters were a great combo as she was the sensible one with a crush on a doofus that was Johnny.
Are there other female characters that I left out that you enjoyed watching? Please mention your number one pick in the comments.
