She was 4 years younger than Will, and died after falling through the ice when she and Will were growing up. Yeah, (I know who Penelope is) that would be odd. She died when Will was younger (so at least a few years before the curse. It wouldn't make any sense to bring in:

-a character who's curently dead

-a character from a spinoff who was solely mentioned

-a random person that's not a fairytale character (that we know of)

Would be odd. Chances are Ella's connection is less "thought-out" than that.
