Not seeing a problem. Maybe you got a wonky link - the capitalization of a page's title depends upon the capitalization of the URL you used.

When I search in the search bar for 'jane eyre', all the Jane Eyre related pages show the title as JANEEYRE.

That must be a Google screw-up. It has nothing to do with us.

You're right, it happens from the Google search bar too.

I deleted this entry as it's not an example from this book. Plus "sort of" makes it Examples Are Not Arguable.
- Perspective Flip: Wide Sargasso Sea sort of qualifies. Parts 1 and 3 are narrated by Bertha. Part 2 is narrated by an unnamed Englishman. Reading the two together is a pretty awesome experience.
This is very questionable:
Not every detail in a work of fiction that doesn't match reality makes a book an Alternate History, especially a rather obscure detail such as this. Charlotte Bronte was almost certainly not checking the registers of enlisted men to make sure that any naval officer she happened to mention was in fact a real person; this is pure artistic license, nothing more. She's picked a name for a fictional naval officer inspired by a fairly well-known one, we're supposed to just assume that in the fictional world she's created there might just happens to be more than one naval officer with the name Fitzjames (at most, for all she would have likely known he might have had a brother also in the service or something). Jane Eyre is in no way a work of Alternate History as the genre is otherwise recognised and it's just wrong for us to act as if it is based on nothing more than a, frankly, rather minor and pedantic point as this.
