step sisters from Cinderella
Q: Many years ago, when I was a little girl, I had several Disney comic books. Some of the stories involved Cinderella and her stepsisters. I could swear that their names were Anastasia and Drucilla. When did this name change to Drizella? I've seen it referred to in this form everywhere, even on official Disney pages. Am I imagining things, or possibly not remembering correctly? I must say that I was surprised the first time I saw the name Drizella. Please tell me I'm not crazy.

A: Drizella is the name that has been associated with the character since the animated motion picture was made in 1950. Drizella is the stepsister with the dark hair. There have been occasional misspellings of Drusilla and Drucilla; in the 2015 live-action film, the character was Drisella.
