Abigail Adams calls herself "Diana" in her letters to her husband, John Adams, particularly in a correspondence dated from 1776. The name references the Roman goddess of the hunt, which symbolizes her independence and strength. By adopting this persona, she expresses her desire for autonomy and reflects her progressive views on women's roles in society. This choice of identity highlights her advocacy for women's rights and her own self-empowerment.
