The official YouTube blog VenetianPrincess asked to explain their username. Your answer ( freely translated ):

"When I created my YouTube account back then in 2006, I did not think about a name in reference to a brand. I just thought of a user name and an inspiration for videos. I thought of Venetian Princess, firstly because I half-Italian. Venice has so much culture and mysticism, of the Venetian masks (English: Venetian Masks ) to the gondolas I thought that would make a good video setting the princess part ( engl: Princess ). . was my tribute to my idol, Princess Diana I am also. a Disney fan, so it has two meanings for me.
