The original Ellen from Hatarakimono
- Ellen is a heroine of はたらきもの (Hatarakimono: good worker), which is a manga by Izumi Takemoto (竹本泉). ZUN is a fan of him; it seems that there is some influence from his manga in the Touhou series.
- Ellen said she is ふわふわエレン (Fuwafuwa Ellen; Fluffy Ellen). In Hatarakimono, Ellen is called so and her full name is エレン・ふわふわ頭・オーレウス (Ellen Fuwafuwaatama Aureus; Ellen Fluffy-Head Aureus).
- Ellen appears on the cover of Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream along with all the other characters in that game.
- Ellen's outfit may have been the inspiration for Marisa's outfit later on in the Windows series. Her alternate outfit is even black.
- Furthermore, one of Marisa's palettes in Touhou Hisoutensoku resembles Ellen.
- Her pet cat, Sokrates, is said to rarely leave Ellen's side. In fact, the only time Ellen is seen without him is when she casts a spell card.
