Adella is the name of my sixteen-year-old stepdaughter. She's a great girl, and everyone says she has a great name, but I can't take any credit for her name!:) We sometimes call her Ade, but Adella is short enough not to need a nickname. Her middle name is Jane, and her sister's names are Emeline and Lillian. Her brothers' names are Jack and Hudson.
