Ursella

Ursella is a Latinate feminine name derived from the Latin word ursa, meaning bear. It functions as an extended or elaborated form of Ursula, the diminutive that became widely known through the legendary Christian martyr Saint Ursula, said to have been killed at Cologne in the early centuries of the church. The name shares its root with other bear-related forms such as Ursa, Ursina, and Orsola, the last being a common Italian equivalent.
