Thoroughly Mistaken Identity: Difference between revisions

* In Vivian van Velde's ''Now You See It'', the main character's senile grandmother keeps calling her by the wrong name. It turns out this is because {{spoiler|the main character traveled back in time and befriended her grandmother; her grandmother is calling her by the false name she gave}}.

* In [[Madeleine L'Engle]]'s ''[[A Swiftly Tilting Planet]]'', Mrs. O'Keefe calls Charles Wallace "Chuck." She turns out to be confusing him with her long dead brother.

* In [[Edgar Rice Burroughs]]'s "[[John Carter of Mars|Swords of Mars]]", he meets, while in disguise, a woman named Zanda, who comes from the city of Zodanga, destroyed because of John Carter's actions. She has sworn [[Revenge]] if she ever meets him. She therefore deliberately feigns this trope when she realizes the truth.
