From Disney (proper noun - An American corporation) + 'fy'. The term was originally coined to describe the transformation of Times Square, New York following the opening of a Disney store in the early 1990's. Following this the Peep Show and Striptease joints that had come to dominate the area in the previous decades closed down or were driven out by changes in the Zoning laws. Disneyfication is, perhaps, the commoner form.

Disneyfication (also called Disneyization) is a term which describes the transformation of something, usually society at large, to resemble The Walt Disney Company's theme parks. Sharon Zukin (1996) uses the former term in her book The Cultures of Cities, as do other social scientists writing about urban transformation. The latter term was popularized by Alan Bryman in a 2004 book, The Disneyization of Society. Disneyfication of urban space is explored in Jeff Ferrell's Tearing Down the Streets: Adventures in Urban Anarchy.
