What would be a good title?

I am writing a story and would like some title ideas. Here's a summary:

Maura lives in Middle Ages Ireland with her oppressive, extremely religious father and her two brothers. Her father has arranged a marriage to a boy who is crude, rude, and above all, hates her. When Maura hears that her family is going on a pilgrimage to England's Canterbury Church, she sees an opportunity to break away. Will she succeed? Or will her plan go down in flames?

    The best thing you can do is research old Irish poetry and find a phrase that fits. Use the original Gaelic phrase or translate it to an English equivalent. That will have the best impact, and also immediately inspire interest and curiosity in what it's about.

    I like allegoric titles that don't give out much of the story.

    I don't know what exactly your story is about, but I assume there will be lots of obstacles for the protagonist, looking at the summary.

    I'd go for something like "From Needle to Thorn".
