Naming children after songs: yes/no, and why? Do you know any people named after songs?

I think yes...I would love to be named after a song that I knew my parents loved, it seems like a really special meaning. And I would definitely do it for any future children I had, if both me and my signifigant other loved the song.

I don't think I know anyone named after a song, but if my little brother Andrew had been a girl he would have been Annabelle after "Anna Begins" by the Counting Crows.

I like the idea of naming a kid after a song. It's nice to have special meaning behind a name. I thought of one of my friend's whose mom really wanted to name her Roxanne because of the song, good thing she decided not to.

I knew a Roxanne that fit that... apparently her parents had no idea about the song. blech...
