Persuasion
Jane Austen died before choosing a title for her last completed novel, Persuasion. Many critics believe that Jane had plans to title the novel "The Elliots". Obviously, the novel was published with the title Persuasion, which refers to the persuasion that Anne Elliot, a character in the novel, gave into, and later regreted.

The plot of the novel is introduced "Eight years ago, Anne Elliot fell in love with a poor but ambitious young naval officer, Captain Frederick Wentworth." Anne's family was in disapproval of Wentworth, simply because they felt that he was not good enough for an Elliot. Anne's friend and mentor, Lady Russell, persuaded Anne to avoid Wentworth. Anne, at 27 years old, was on the verge of spinsterhood (an older unmarried woman), when she reencounters Wentworth, only to learn he is courting her neighbor, Louisa Musgrove.
