This week, the World-Weary women question "What's in a name?" with a coincidental rivalry theme. Violet explains the conquests of the mighty samurai warlord, Uesugi Kenshin: how they came to be known as the "Dragon of Echigo" and their famous rivalry with the "Tiger of Kai". Cassiopeia looks at the 19th century's scientific "name and shame" war that started with a Prince of Botany and ended with feuding palaeontologists.
