[[quoteright:228:[[ComicBook/{{Vampirella}} https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vampirella_9.jpg]]]]

A name format based on the fairytale "Literature/{{Cinderella}}", where the eponymous character is given a {{Portmanteau}} nickname of "Cinder+Ella". Recently "X+Ella" has been a popular way to name some characters. This seems to be particularly common for superhero comic books.

It should be noted the the suffix "-ella" is one form of a [[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-lus#Latin Latin dimunitive ending]]; coincidentally, another form is found in another name you might find on TV Tropes -- [[TheCaligula Caligula]].

May be used to create a LazilyGenderFlippedName. Obviously, this can sometimes overlap with CinderellaPlot, if the Cinderella's name follows the story trend.

!!Examples:

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* ''Tsunderella'', the title of one of the ''Manga/LuckyStar'' OVA segments, referring the resident {{Tsundere}} Kagami.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* In the '60s, there was ''ComicBook/{{Barbarella}}'', who spawned from France and [[FollowTheLeader influenced a few short-lived "answers" from Germany]]. The comic ''Uranella'' and the film-comic ''Evarella'' (both NSFW) are just two of them.
* ''Cyberella'', an obscure title from DC's failed ''Helix'' line. Although the eponymous Cyberella was originally called Li'l Ella before she was retooled in the 1990s.
* ''ComicBook/{{Vampirella}}''. She's also used the alias "Vee" on occasion, but "Vampirella" really ''is'' her name. Except for [[Film/{{Vampirella}} the obscure film adaptation]], where she was known as just Ella before she travelled to Earth. More recent stories claim that it's an alias; her actual Drakulonian name is [[TheUnpronounceable unpronouncable in human tongues]].
* Vampirella spawned even more, e.g. the "Portuguese Vampirella" Zakarella.

[[folder:Fairy Tales]]
* Again, the name comes from "Literature/{{Cinderella}}", although it was originally meant to be cruel and demeaning, in reference to how she would get covered in ashes as a servant. Ironically, it was the kinder version of her nickname, as the other sister called the title character "Cinderwench" or even "Cinderslut", depending on the translation.
* Other fairy tales with -ella endings:
** The French fairy tale "Rosanella" - the titular princess is named so because she has a rose printed on her throat.
** Another French fairy tale, "Peronella" by François Fénelon, which is about a country girl who switches places with an old queen.
** "Prunella" from Andrew Lang's ''Grey Fairy Book'' is another example.
** A few stories from the Pentamerone, notably ''Cannetella'', ''Petrosinella'' (a variant of Rapunzel), and ''Rosella''.
