Prisella is an alternative spelling and pronunciation of the Latin feminine name Priscilla. Created from one of the world's oldest languages, it is probably apt that Prisella has the meanings of "ancient" and "venerable." The name thrust itself into the spotlight upon the release of the 1994 Australian film The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. Priscilla was a surprise worldwide hit, and its positive portrayal of LGBTQ individuals helped to introduce such themes to a mainstream audience. Academy-award-winning and a cult classic, the movie can inspire baby Prisella to enjoy a free and happy life, living by their own rules.
