What's In A Name? is a novel written by Sarah Doudney and published in 1883. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Mary, who is left orphaned and penniless after her father's death. She is taken in by her uncle, who changes her name from Mary to Muriel, believing it to be more suitable for a lady of her social standing. Muriel struggles to adapt to her new life and identity, feeling disconnected from her past and the people who knew her as Mary. She is also torn between her loyalty to her uncle and her growing affection for a young man named Arthur, who knew her as Mary and is unaware of her change in name. As the story unfolds, Muriel learns the importance of staying true to oneself and the power of a name in shaping one's identity. She also discovers secrets from her past that challenge her beliefs and force her to confront the truth about her family history. What's In A Name? is a compelling tale of identity, family, and love, set against the backdrop of Victorian England. It offers a glimpse into the social norms and expectations of the time, while also exploring timeless themes that are still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
