It's a minor problem I am facing. My MC has her name changed in the first couple of chapters. Let's say her birth name is ----. She is referred to as ---- for the first two chapters. She is then given a new alias and her name is now ~~~~. She is called ~~~~ for the rest of the book. What is a smooth way of changing her name with minimal confusion?
Examples I had were:
----, now known as ~~~~, grew to despise the woman over the course of three days.
~~~~, formally called ----, set the woman's house on fire.
These examples would only be used for a chapter or so. However, I am still feeling iffy.
Any suggestions?
