Meaning and background
The story behind Princesa
Princesa is the Spanish common noun for 'princess', the feminine royal title. That is a direct linguistic translation rather than a mythological or symbolic etymology. The stress and vowels may sound different in Spanish and British English, so using the name aloud can involve a choice of pronunciation. It has an affectionate regal association without providing any information about a dog's rank, ancestry or personality.
