Girls names from songs...

[JoPie]

OH is a singer/songwriter and is sort of obsessed with song lyrics. He wants to choose a girls name that is from a song, but I'm not loving any of his list so far.
So can anyone give me girls names and the associated song or artist is known?

To start off, his faves are;
Martha (from a Tom Waits song)
Sarah (Thin Lizzie) and
Layla (Eric Clapton)

Any thoughts?

A little bit of Monica in my life
A little bit of Erica by my side
A little bit of Rita's all I need
A little bit of Tina's what I see
A little bit of Sandra in the sun
A little bit of Mary all night long
A little bit of Jessica here I am

Bambo no.5

But I hate all of those!

So far, I love layla.

Annie (James Blunt?)

Annie I'm not your daddy (which bloody dp will insist on playing to dd2 [Annie])

Well, if you go goth you'll be spoilt for choice:

The Mission - Amelia/Severina/Fabienne/Evangeline

The Cure - Charlotte/Elise

The Sisters of Mercy - Alice/Marian/Emmeline

The Damned - Eloise...

...& so on, & on...

Squonk - at the clarification....

My Michelle - GnR. As a Michelle, this is way cooler than the Beatles one.
Elise - P J Harvey (notice a theme here?)
Aisha - Death in Vegas
Valerie - Zutons

Marianne - Leonard Cohen
Luca - Susanne Vega

Damn you guys are quick (and good!)

So far I'm loving Elise especially, I really like Layla but it doesn't go with surname, keep them coming.....

Any good?

A pair of eyes...that are brighter than the summer sky... when you see them, you'll realise...why i love my sweet Lorraine. Now when it's rainin i dont miss the sun...cuz it's in my baby's smile...

Oh how i wish i was Lorraine!

Elise is a beautiful name.It was my second choice for dd and I knew a very lovely Elise who was a ward sister in a palliative care unit and just the most calm gentle and all round lovely person...

Anyhow will stop waffling.

Didn't Leonard Cohen also do a song about Suzanne or Susannah or something???

He did indeed wrinkly but poor Suzanne wasn't a particularly fortunate character bless her. 'And you know that she's half crazy, but that's why you want to be there.'

Suzanne takes you down, to the place by the water.... and she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from china (or something like that)

"Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
To make your eyes catch fire
The way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
If they only would
If they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
That hides away
From me and you
There're worlds to part
With aching looks and breaking hearts
And all the prayers your hands can make
Oh I just take as much as you can throw
And then throw it all away"

Martha my dear - Beatles. Which is the one I sing to my Martha.

Lucille - Little Richard
Maybelline - Chuck Berry
Corinna - Bob Dylan
Barbara Ann - Beach Boys
Rhonda - Beach Boys
Prudence - Beatles
Sadie - Beatles
Caroline - Status Quo

ramona (bob dylan)

has My Sharona been done yet?

Lily the Pink (The Scaffold)

Elizabeth my dear - Stone Roses.

But I love Leonard Cohen so Suzanne would get my vote

Great way to short list names by the way!
