Stella Mudd (née Grimes) was a 23rd century Human woman and wife of Harcourt Fenton Mudd. 

Stella's father, Baron , was a wealthy arms dealer who claimed he would do anything for his daughter, to the point of allowing her to marry Mudd. ()

Sometime before 2268, Stella became separated from her husband when the latter resumed his career as a con artist.  Mudd later created an  of Stella that was programmed to shut down on command so that he could always get in the last word. His revenge backfired on Mudd when James T. Kirk commissioned at least 500 copies of Stella Mudd to serve as parole officers for Harry Mudd on Planet Mudd - none of which responded to Harry's command to "shut up". ()
