Atticus Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I've heard a lot of elizabeths, jennies and stacies. not nearly enough maudes or oprahs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I don't know about 'most used' but Donovan (aka The Pied Piper Of Peace) has to hold the record for most songs with a woman's name in the title. Let's see - Guinevere, Lalena, Jennifer, Susan, Clara, Celia, Maria...hell, that's just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 It has to be "Mary".And probably by a wide margin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 It has to be "Mary".And probably by a wide margin.That was exactly what I was going to say, especially if you include variations on it including Maria, Marie, etc.I would love to do a radio show on that theme, must Mary songs.LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GtrPlyr Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 It has to be "Mary".And probably by a wide margin.For sure, and that's not even counting all the Mary Jane references in lyrics. Springsteen alone has probably used that name a dozen or so times in his lyrics. Runner-up might go to Sally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

froggie Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 speaking of Mary, where did my Supertramp LP go? what about Bob Dylan, he's used both "Sara" and "Sarah"? he's sued Mary a couple of times as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
