Who’s Shannon Carter????

Alright I’m not good at writing and my first language is not English but I’ve been wondering about this.

Firstly I know Shannon is Peggy carters niece but how?

If you’ve ever watched agent Carter you would know that Peggy’s only sibling her brother died in the war before Peggy even joined that army and met Steve. This was made VERY clear because her brother dying was the reason she even accepted the job for the army in the first place.

So the only possible explanation how Shannon is Peggy’s niece is if her brother I think his name is Michael had Shannon before he died.

But that would mean that Shannon would be born pre or early ww2 and would be in her 70s at this point and as you can clearly tell from CAWS Shannon is at most in her mid 20s.

This has been bugging me for years now I can’t figure out how this works.

My first theory was that maybe she’s her niece on Daniel Sousas (Peggy’s husband from agent carter) side but then Shannon’s last name won’t be Carter so that wouldn’t work.

I don’t understand how they could mess this up. It’s not just a normal writing issues, their must have been a group of people sitting down and deciding that someone who’s aunt fought in ww2 looks like they graduated high school in 2015.

Please help I feel like I’m going crazy and have been feeling like this since 2016. I need some kind of answer that lets my mind rest.

Had they done an Agent Carter Season 3 the plan was to reveal that her brother was actually alive and we do see her brother alive, since it was him who shot Jack Thompson in the season 2 finale.

It’s Sharon you’re looking for.

RihoSucks2026-01-10 00:58

OP you been calling her by the wrong name since 2016?!? 🤣🤣🤣

CautiousRabbit2452026-01-10 00:59

I know I wrote the wrong name I’m stressed, I’m sweating trying to figure this out

dbkenny4262026-01-10 01:11

This really shouldn't be something causing you stress.

Who is Shannon Carter? The character’s name is *Sharon* Carter. She’s introduced as Peggy’s great-niece so the math can work . The last name part may seem odd but it’s possible her parents had the same last name. Weirder things with names have happened. Also Peggy doesn’t marry Sousa in Agent Carter.

There actually is a Shannon Carter in the comics. She’s Sharon’s cousin and takes up the Cap mantle as American Dream in the MC2 universe.

Not really. Brother had a son, son had a daughter, name stays across the generations right?

midasgoldentouch2026-01-10 07:00

No, what I’m saying is that you can’t assume that if Peggy’s brother or sister-in-law is Sharon’s grandparent that she would have a different last name. It’s possible that Sharon’s maternal grandmother is Peggy’s sister-in-law but Sharon’s father has the last name Carter. And that’s before we even get into things like Sharon choosing to use Carter professionally, regardless of her actual last name.

Naming conventions are not applied as regularly as people think.

My brain just melted!

You’re falling to the misconception that Peggy’s brother is Sharon’s father instead of the possibility that her brother’s son or even grandson is actually Sharon’s father.

Great aunts and uncles are often referred to as just aunt or uncle. My grandma’s brother was my great uncle, but I always just called him Uncle.

Peggy is Sharon’s great aunt or maybe great-great aunt.

StrawberrySolid90242026-01-10 01:19

Pretty sure its Sharonna Carter.

Saraleb12026-01-10 01:20

As you said Michael Shannon is the father.... it happened in a lesser known DC crossover

RyukenRyusei2026-01-10 01:21

Sharon is Peggy’s GRAND-niece.

EchoSkillet2026-01-10 01:22

Sometimes the great gets lost when referring to your grandparent’s siblings. In my family, they are all just Aunt or Uncle *their name*.

Alive-Monk-57052026-01-10 03:32

She's great great niece, I assumed her brother had a daughter before he died and that daughter had a daughter etc etc

Grayx_28872026-01-10 04:15

You give the character's name wrong. It's **SHARON** not *"Shannon."*

DigificWriter2026-01-10 05:01

Sharon is Michael Carter's (Peggy's brother) grandchild. That's why Peggy is her Great-Aunt.

gusefalito2026-01-10 05:13

Sharon is Peggy's great aunt. Michael was going to be revealed as alive in Agent Carter S3. His son is Sharon's dad.

Sharon is peggy carter's neice who was one of the loyal members of shield introduced in winter soldier. She and steve shared a kiss, and was also on the run because she secretly helped Steve who was labelled as a criminal on not signing the accords in civil war. Then Steve goes back to past in endgame and post endgame sharon carter who was on the run became power broker.
