Carol Danvers grew up in the suburbs of Boston. The only daughter and the oldest child in a large family, she spent her formative years competing with her younger brothers. From an early age, Carol had a fiercely independent nature and aspirations for her future. Carol's relationship with her chauvinistic father was filled with strife and conflict. He refused to help pay for Carol to go to college, preferring to save the money for his oldest son’s education. His belief that Carol should find a husband to care for her ran opposite to Carol’s desire to educate herself and see the world.

In defiance of her father, Carol entered the Air Force after graduating at the top of her high school class.

The military gave Carol the opportunity to pursue her love of aircrafts and her dreams of flying and enabled her to make her own way in the world.

How much more on-the-nose can you get!
In establishing that the comicbook character Carol Danvers wanted to be her 'own woman' it made perfect sense to bestow on said character her own unique superhero name AND superhero look [B][SIZE=1]as in BINARY and WARBIRD (Carol's love for aircrafts)[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
