Desdemona Capp

Desdemona Capp is the third of four Capp children born to Goneril and Albany Capp. She idolizes her older sister and wants to be just like her.

In Shakespeare's Othello, the villainous Iago successfully persuades Othello that Desdemona is unfaithful and uses this belief to destroy their lives, eventually leading Othello to murder her. Her name, 'Desdemona', means 'unfortunate' in Greek.
