  3. the girls from little women the novel  writtten by L. Alcott  during 1867 and early 1868, great names and characters

    Josephine "Jo" March: The star of the novel. Jo is a tomboy and the second-oldest sister at fifteen. She is very outspoken and has a passion for writing. Her bold nature often gets her into trouble. She is especially close to her younger sister Beth, who helps her become a gentler person. She is employed by her Aunt March, in taking care of her well being. Jo cuts off her long , chestnut brown hair — "her one beauty," as Amy calls it — and sells it to a wig shop to get money for her mother to visit their father, a wounded Civil War chaplain. She refuses the proposal of marriage from family friend Laurie (despite many letters sent to Mr. March to have them married), and later marries Professor Fritz Bhaer. They have two sons, Rob, named after his grandfather, and Teddy, named after Laurie. The character of Jo is based on Louisa herself.

    Margaret "Meg" March: At sixteen, she is the oldest sister. She is very pretty and somewhat vain about her looks, with smooth hair and small, white hands. She is the most responsible and helps run the household in her mother's absence. Meg also guards Amy from Jo when they have fights, just like Jo protects Beth. Due to the family's poverty she must work as a governess for wealthy friends, the King family. After having bad experiences with some rich people (first, the Kings' eldest son is disinherited for bad behavior, and later she visits her friend Annie Moffat and discovers that her family believes Mrs. March is plotting to engage her to Laurie only for his family's wealth), the greedy Meg learns to tolerate being poor, and eventually discovers that true worth does not lie with money. She falls in love with Mr. John Brooke, Laurie's poor tutor. She eventually marries Mr. Brooke and bears twin children, Margaret "Daisy" and John, Jr. "Demi" (short for Demi-John), and a third child, Josephine (called "Josie"), who is mentioned in Little Men.

    Elizabeth "Beth" March: The second-youngest sister, at about thirteen, is a quiet, kind young woman and an exceptional pianist. She also enjoys looking after her dolls and cats. She is docile and shy to a fault; she is homeschooled due to her chronic shyness. Beth also is engaged with charity; while her mother is nursing their father, she contracts scarlet fever from a poor German family. She survives the illness but is weakened greatly, and eventually dies of bad health. She is described as having a round, rosy face, shiny brown hair and appearing younger than her years. She is especially close to Jo, despite their very different personalities.

    Amelia Curtis "Amy" March: The youngest sister at age twelve when the story begins, and a talented artist, Amy is described as a pretty young girl with golden hair (in curls) and blue eyes (she is described as having the general traits of a "snow maiden"). Her nose however is rather flat, and Amy obsesses over this minor flaw, apparently having acquired it after a small accident she had as a three-year-old, when she was playing with Jo. She cares about her family, but is also "cool, reserved and worldly", showing more compassion when she became a wife. In her youth, she is vain and spoiled and is inclined to throw tantrums when things do not go her way, being often "petted" since she was the youngest. Her relationship with Jo in particular is often strained, due to Jo's bad temper and Amy's immaturity. She eventually travels abroad thanks to her Aunt March (who originally wanted Jo to accompany her, but changes her mind, considering Jo's unladylike behavior), and finally marries Laurie.
