Answer:

Johnsy

Johnsy is another important character in the short story.

Outer characterization

Her outer characterization reveals that her name is, in fact, Joanna, that she is an artist, and that she comes from California. Note that the name Joanna is masculinized by the nickname Johnsy, which makes her come across as the more masculine one in the relationship.

...

Inner characterization

Johnsy’s inner characterization comes across when she gets sick with pneumonia. Before getting sick, her greatest wish was to travel to Italy to paint the Bay of Naples, which reveals that art is an important part of her life. However, as she gets sicker day by day, Johnsy soon loses her wish to live and falls prey to desperation.

When she counts the leaves from the ivy vine, she is convinced that she will die once the last leaf falls. This becomes a sort of obsession with Johnsy, who seems unaware of Sue’s efforts to make her regain her wish to live.

I Hope it will help!
