¡Hola!, Emayuku:
If you look at "ceniciento" in our dictionary. here ----> Ceniciento/a it can be either masculine or feminine.
MacFadden has said that "Cenicienta" is the Spanish equivalent of "Cinderella" and this is correct.
There is no reason why "Ceniciento" cannot be the Spanish equivalent of "CinderFella". I'm just not sure if the Cinderella/CinderFella contrast has the same humour in Spanish and English.
Our dictionary suggests one meaning for "ceniciento/a", in English, is a scullion. A scullion is simply a servant employed to work in a kitchen. This could be female or male depending on the gender of the worker.

Hello, and welcome to the forum.
Update: Sorry, I thought you were asking about Cinderella, not 'cinderfella.' I've never even heard that in English. I'm not quite sure I get your question, now. You give the definition of 'cieniciento' and then ask how to say it in Spanish. Cieniciento is how you say it in Spanish.
This was my original answer:
Cinderella is called "Cenicienta" in Spanish. It comes from the word for ashes, ceniza, which are like cinder.
