Chell?
Quote from jrlauer on June 11, 2009, 5:38 pmOn level 16 in the original game, GLaDOS says something about "android hell". An android that looks human is called a cyborg so another name for android hell could be cyborg hell. It has been debated that Chell might be a cyborg, so Cyborg hell shorted; C(yborg) + hell= Chell. I just made that up, I have no idea where they got the name.

That's actually the best Portal-related plot theory I've heard so far.

The quality is a bit bad but it's taken from a youtube video, not the game.
And just for fun: here's a picture Alesia Glidewell:
