This page is for the benefit of people using search engines who can't
spell my surname (repeat after me: two n's and two l's).
Where you really want to be is
here.
But since you are here and not there, maybe what you really
want is information about Sanella, and you couldn't care less about
Sannella. So here is what I know.
- There is a margarine in Germany called
Sanella
(German Wikipedia entry),
produced by the
Unilever subsidiary Union Deutsche Lebensmittelwerke.
Unfortunately it was not the invention of a distant relative who left
me his/her fortune. According to the nice people at the Sanella
Beratungsservice, the name was originally Sana
(sounds like Sahne = cream) which then evolved into Sanella.
- It seems that Sanella margarine produced
baseball cards and other
sports-related cards around 1930.
If you do a web search for "Sanella margarine", the main thing you
find is collectors selling such cards:
here is one
such site.
- In Finnish, "sanella" means "dictate", as in dictating a letter
(thanks to Roope Kaivola for this information). According to
Wiktionary, it was
"originally the frequentative aspect of the non-existent verb sanata",
but you probably knew that already.
- Some people appear to think that
Sanella
is a good girl's name.
- Here
is a recording of "I Want You For Myself" by Andy Sanella and his Pennzoil Orchestra.
- "Bring a little sporty style into your wardrobe with the Fly Flot Sanella Faux Fur Boot"
