I quite like Drusilla. I don't know why, though...

Ha, foolish one! I too once thought that Cinderella's stepsister was named Drusilla, and was so brash as to state this as a fact, here on this very board. I was appropriately and promptly corrected. Cinderella's stepsister is Drizella. So there. I hope you feel as abashed as I did.
But I can't shake the feeling that it should be Drusilla, because Drusilla is a real name, and if Anastasia can have a real name, why can't Drizella?
I kind of like Drusilla. I put it in the same category as Jerusha. I just like Jerusha, even though it sounds like it should be one of the horrid kids in "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." They're both kind of icky, but in an endearing way.
