Samuella is an ancient term for a small energetic individual who enjoys fairies, cupcakes, and other whimsical creatures. Samuellas also enjoy animated films about princesses, as well as ponies and sparkles.

In 1970, a medieval vellum manuscript was found during an archeological excavation in the Scottish highlands. This manuscript contains the earliest known usage of the term "Samuella" to describe a tavern dancing girl in 1437. The inscription can be found below.

Samuella is also the feminine version of the popular Biblical name "Samuel."
