•In the case of Eleanor, her name is the name of a Medieval Queen Consort of France and England who was known not only for her extraordinary beauty but for her exceptional intellectual capacities and leadership. There is also her age; she is 3 years older than her sister Marianne, which implies that she is more experienced in terms of society, class and human nature. She is shown as even more intelligent than her mother, whom she counsels frequently. Her love choice is an older man and Jane Austin describes her physical appearance with the adjective “correct” , which inevitably means that she carries herself with correction, in other words in accordance to social and moral norms.

•In the Case of Marianne, her name is quite different. It is a French name and that implies many things as the French were an adversary of England and were considered to be more passionate, impulsive and emotional than English. Her name is a combination of the names Mary and Anne, which mean respectively “beloved” and “grace”, very emotional personality traits. She is 3 years younger than her adult sister, she is the quintessential adolescent teen, romantic and emotionally impulsive and unrealistically idealistic about feelings. Her physical description is quite revealing, the author uses the words “more striking”, to signify the outward physicality of her outlook of life and her lack of intellectual reflection.
