Names inspired by songs

[adaloveslace]

My daughter was nearly Martha thanks to Tom Waits.

What songs have or could inspire you to name a baby after them?

My little girl is Lyla.....

We've had lots of compliments on her name, but we never intended to name her after the Oasis song despite both being fans.
I really wanted a girls name that could be sung iykwim, and I have always bemoaned that there are NO songs with my name in!
I actually liked Lola but hubs liked Layla and in the background when we were having that convo Lyla was playing T'was meant to be and it really suits her.

My name's on that list too, McKayz!
I love my name but it has been slated on these threads as dated and mumsy!

My name is usually slated for be chavvy.

Eloise - The Damned. I would have used it if it hadn't already been used within my close family.

Same with DS's name mckayz

K-K-K-Katie was not as funny as the hundredth person who sang it to me as a child thought it was.

Always middle aged uncle types.

I had that from middle aged uncle types, msjupiter, with something called 'mother Kelly on the doorstep' and is possibly how I perfected face age 5.

There is the sublime 'Kelly watch the stars' by Air as inspiration now but of course Kelly is a dreaded k name that means I won't grow up to be a high court judge or something...

Agree with Charles - Georgia on my mind is a goregous song don't think that anyone will remember that 1D one in years to come :)

gorgeous rather!

Halloween appropriate typos!
