The Austen Experience: Your Austen Name



Jane Austen’s family coat of arms.

Ever wanted to know what your name might be if you were a character in one of Jane Austen’s novels or perhaps a member of Regency society? Well, here’s your chance. 


Take this handy one-question quiz that I found yesterday while on Twitter.
First, I was Mrs. Eliza Brown.
Then, I was Mrs. Cassandra Courtland.
I like the second better.
How quick come the reasons for approving what we like! –Jane Austen

  1. I like your second better as well, but Eliza Brown isn't all that bad 😉 I lucked out with Miss Julia Davenport which rocks. I put in my husband's name and he would be Reverend Ned Dowkins. I am in stitches.

  2. I got Bridget Whitby. It sounds too much like the flibbertigibbet side character. The husband is Sir Ralph Reynolds. Looks like we're doomed to be the comic relief!

  3. My husband is Sir Arthur Watson. I wonder how he came to the title? Hopefully, he's a baronet and not a knight. More prestige. LOL How silly.
