I think POV is everyting in the narrative... In _Little Women_ Jo is
"Jo", and Laurie is "Laurie" (Jo and Laurie's POV); but then in
_Little Men_ (POV switches to the boys), Jo is "Mrs. Jo", "Mrs. Bhaer",
or "Mother Bhaer", and Laurie is "Mr. Laurie" or "Uncle Teddy".

rather weird that the narrative always refers to Scarlett's parents by
their first names...)
