Charlotta the Fourth is Miss Lavendar's serving girl. A practical and plainspoken teenager, she nevertheless worships the fanciful Miss Lavendar and Anne after she meets her. Her real name is Leonora, but Miss Lavendar calls her Charlotta the Fourth because her older sister was Miss Lavendar's first serving girl, and Miss Lavendar has called each successive sister by the same name in order to simplify things for her memory. Though Charlotta emulates Anne's casual grace and elegance, Charlotta is an average-looking and unimaginative girl with a kind heart and willingness to work hard.
