I know someone just posted something relatively related to this but I didn't have time to post a list I had actually been compiling.

I just saw Across the Universe so I know I really want to name all my kids after Beatles song.

haha.
I won't really.
But these are the names from songs I have

The Beatles: 
Eleanor*
Jude*
Julia*
Prudence
Sadie*
Lucy*
Pam
Sally
Penny Lane*

Melissa*-The Allman Bros. Band
Mary-Sublime
Jacalyn and Barbara-Regina Spektor
Catherine Morgan*-Lagwagon
Mariah-Coheed and Cambria
Allan Gordon-The Fall of Troy

I love that Regina Spektor song, but I don't care for the names.

I like Penny Lane, though, but it's way too obvious.

I also like the name Annie from the Sublime song, but the song concerning the girl is just a little too much for me. :P

I've always liked Eleanor and Sadie. I like names from songs. I would consider naming b/g twins Zak and Sara from the Ben Folds song. I also like Lisa, Kate, Stan(ley), and Emaline (all Ben Folds)

I love Emaline! I almost named my daughter that, but Emma was just too common.

If this bebee is a boy, he'll be Julian, nm Jude. (though, I'm feeling it's a girl)

I can't deny my love for the Beatles didn't influence that heavily ;)

And you know, Clapton wrote that song for George Harrison's (then) wife. Scandal!!!

That Coheed song made me love the name Mariah.

For a little while, anyway. :)

Anna is another Beatles name.

I didn't know Sadie was a Beatles song =D It's high on my list =)

I've said this, but I'm going to say it again because I feel like it's funny. My dad's a teacher and he has had students named both Penny Lane and Ruby Tuesday.

I think you could also use Abbey, as in Road, if you were so inclined.

I also just randomly found this link (http://www.answers.com/topic/list-of-songs-with-personal-names-a) which could help you find any name you ever wanted to use and its use in song titles. Could be fun to find songs about your name, too!

See my username? That's my name. First and middle. My parents weren't even big beatles fans, I don't even think they did it on purpose!

But I like it, and I love pointing out to people that both my names are Beatles songs :)

Oh, how I love the Dear Prudence song, and how I wish it could be cool to use, not just... prude.

There is also Martha and Michelle :D
We just named our new puppy Eleanor Rigby, haha.

I LOVE Penny and Eleanor, and I quite like Sadie. I'd be perfectly happy to name my kids after Beatles songs!
