What was the first name of Mark Twain’s daughter who died at age 24? The answer is Olivia.
Mark Twain’s eldest daughter was born Olivia Susan Clemens in 1872. She was commonly known as Susy, a nickname derived from her middle name, Susan, but Olivia was her first name.
Susy Clemens was a writer and literary critic who produced a biography of her father when she was a teenager. Mark Twain later incorporated parts of that work into his autobiographical writing.
She died in 1896 at the age of 24 from spinal meningitis. Her death deeply affected her family and her father. Mark Twain and his wife, Olivia Langdon Clemens, also had daughters Clara and Jean, but neither is the daughter identified by the age and death detail in the question.
Therefore, “Susy” identifies the daughter popularly, but “Olivia” is the precise answer to a question asking for her first name.
