Hi,
I know that "Alice in Wonderland" is the shorted title of "Alice's adventures in Wonderland" and 'in' indicates that Alice wanders in the land of Wonderland.
I'd like to ask, "If it were "Alice of Wonderland", does this make sense?"
I think "Alice of Wonderland" makes sense and is at least grammatically correct, but it could mean that Alice is someone like a witch who is believed to live in the Wonderland. What do you say to this?
Thanks in advance.
