“Stell-la!”
I think you mean “STELL-LA!” I knew a backstage doorman in NYC who worked a show Kim Hunter was in. When someone called for her at the stage door, he’d bellow into the intercom, “STELL-LA!” He said he got a gentle reprimand from her (“Now now, that was a long time ago!”).

A drugged-up Elaine meets Jerry's Aunt Stella in this clip and can't stop saying "Stell-la! Stell-la!"
What is the origin of that "Stell-la!" thing? I don't get you white people.
"Stella's Got Her Groove Back"--of course. Where else?

I think there actually was an all-black revival of "Streetcar" some years ago! "Yo! Stell-luh!"
