"Michelle" by John Lennon. My dad named me after that song.
On "The Family Guy", one of the characters quickly reeled off twenty songs that are named after a girl. It went too quickly for me to catch them all, but I bet there are hundreds of songs like that out there. Anyone have a song title to contribute?
I'll go with "Tracy" by the Cufflinks, released in 1969 because, well, my name is Tracy
PS Is it true that Tracy is a chav name in Britain???![]()
"Michelle" by John Lennon. My dad named me after that song.
How about Julia by John Lennon, I love that song. I have read it was about his Mother.
Also Brandy by Looking Glass? I think that is the group's name.
"A boy named Sue" <--Johnny Cash
Alessi Brothers - "Oh Lori"

Allman Brother Sweet Melissa
and
Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline
For some reason those 2 are linked in my head, I guess since they both have the word "Sweet" in the title.
