] Several of the names in ARWAV are signficant: Miss Lavish, and Mr Eager, for example

I mean when we're introduced to her, "Lucy Honeychurch" sounds like a nice, sensible, very English name. But her full name is Lucia, an Italian name with a kind of sexy sound(maybe what I mean is that a Lucia sounds more capable of passion). So does this indicate somehow that Lucy/Lucia is not all that she seems at first, or could be seen to represent by her name, nationality. Lucia- Here also is an Italian connection which predates Lucy's Italy visit. Does this connect with Mr Beebe's Fate versus Italy debate? Perhaps not. What's in a name? More, or less than this garbled version of my thoughts represents? Someone, please interpret.
