Comment on the significance of the names of the characters in A.S. Byatt’s short story

Comment on the significance of the names of the characters in A. S. Byatt’s short story pbX3L

Firstly, the painter in the story does not have a specific name. He represents Jesus Christ in the story of Martha and Mary. He visits the house where Dolores works in and then gives her wisdom just like Jesus. He is re-enacting the parable of Jesus Christ. Also, the meal which the two servant and the painter sit and eat together in the end of the story is represents Jesus' last supper. Dolores, Maria de los Dolores means Mary of sorrows. Dolores suffers because of her social status as a servant. Not only becoming a servant but also, she complains about not having any recognition or reception of her work. The name gives the real effect of her situation in the story. Conception and Don Conchita means fertility, mother of all nations and conceiving. They are all the titles of Virgin Mary. All the names of the female characters in the story is the titles of Virgin Mary.
