Daisy's subtle humor and sarcasm when talking with Winterbourne.& it seems that James calls Daisy by different names in different situations
a_gilchrist
says
like sometimes its just Daisy and other times he refers to her as Miss Miller or Miss Daisy Miller. not sure if this is significant or not?

it seems that he just uses Daisy in conversation with Winterbourne and most other times its is the other way.

Did anyone catch Winterbourne's first name in there? Or was it purposely left out?

I think it was purposely left out, because I recall a couple of scenes where he was trying to give his name but was interrupted.

James might trying to emphasize the difference b/w W and Daisy- during this time, first naming someone wasn't the typical practice.

maybe the narrator is a character of itself. page 416 the narrator indicates his own existance to the readers. whatchu guys think?

I thought I read somewhere his name was Frederick at the top of page 401. Maybe it was someone else.

it is Frederick. Mrs. Costello addresses him as such.
