Came across this on Tumblr the other day. Seems relevant:

I actually really love my name, so short of going on the run from the law, I don't think I'd ever want to change it.

That's my favorite passage. Jane knew herself, her mind, her values and her worth. That self-awareness motivated everything that she did. She had more agency and self-respect as a 10 year old than Bella had in that entire series.

"Jane goes back because she loves Rochester, she wants to be with him, but she also goes back knowing her independence will remain secure." This, exactly.
