Does your name have a song associated with it?

[LemonBars]

Do people sing it to you?

I have a name that has at least two songs associated with it. One less known than the other but I have occasionally had someone sing it to me. As a child I regularly had someone sing more famous song to me but now I, thankfully, rarely have to experience that. It's more irritating than infuriating but I don't understand why people do it.

No but I was named after a member of a famous 80s girl band

There are 3 songs Iknow of with my name featured prominently. None of them are very recent so I only tend to get one of them sung to me occasionally.

All I can say is fuck you Eddy Grant and fuck off Kool and the gang!!!

A Beatles song but not in the context of it being a person's name - more a street...

Yes - sung at me by drunks frequently in my youth- and I called my daughter a name that had two different songs- one rather pathetic and the other annoyingly warbly. I actually did a Google check before I named her, thought grand, I've never heard of those songs so nobody else will either. Wrong.

Your parents called you Bananarama? Well that's just mean!!!

No l never was a punk rocker so please don’t sing that bloody song to me

All my life! Each person being “but a fool”

I have a whole opera associated with mine.... Am gonna put myself anyway with this so I may as well.go right ahead. 19th century Spain, gypsies, French composer, mezzo soprano lead, bullfights etc. Begins with C and sung in French

Our myself, sorry

Yes - a Beatles song my uncle insisted on singing at me every single time he saw me.

@lilmishap We have the same name!

No but elderly people remember a singer with my rare unisex name. Thankfully that's rare nowadays

Mine is in songs by Paulo Nutuni, The Killers & J-Lo have had them all sung to me over the years usually by eejits trying to be annoying

I'm another with Barry Manilow / Westlife crooning about me  my youngest requests it frequently on Alexa because he knows it annoys me immensely due to years of being subjected to it by family,friends and anyone half cut. @Graphista I think I know your name ( Fellow Scot) you must be very proud 😜

@Sakura7 I think you're thinking of an 80's pop song by an Irish band?

@Cheekychops73 you may have I can't tell from your reply. Not proud bloody annoyed!

Yes.

In the late early 00's as a teen tomboy who hung around with mainly boys and having a rather youthful looking Mum it drove me absolutely nuts - drunk people still bloody sing it to me every now and then 🙄

Elvis Costello, But nobody I know knows it and I've never had it sung to me. Thank fuck I'd die!!!

Is your name spelt the same way as the song name or does it have the double letter?

There’s a 1960s song with my name and exh’s name in. Fortunately it’s so old now people don’t know it.

@Whatthebloodyell - that’s me.

Tons!
There were five that I knew of - I'm in the title of a song by Eric Clapton, one by Lou Reed, also a song sung by various blues bands including The Commitments (a car + my name), I'm in the lyrics of a song by Oasis plus also an old song that all the boys used to sing to me at school about sneaking me down an alley.

Just googled it though and are 31 songs with my name in!!!!

Once a jolly swagman....?

@therhubarbbrothers

Yes. Not the name that's on my birth certificate but my nick name (which most people call me). Men especially think it's hilarious when drunk.
