Is there a song, book, or other object named after you? 

I've always been interested in what(and who) other people share their names with.


I'll start:

Princess Adelaide(Queen Mary's daughter)
the closest song that I know of is Adelida by George Straight.

So who, and what do you share your name with?

No songs or anything else using my name. The Ruth in the Bible is the only one I know. I wish I had been named after my grandmother, Emily. Come to think of it, there aren't any songs named after her either.
Too many to mention...

I was named after a queen or something. But my mom didn't really do it for that purpose- she just liked the name and mentions it as an afterthought.
My kids are all named after someone in particular but it's their middle names.

Actually my nae is unusual in it's entirety. But I guess I could say Rae Dawn Chong, just for the Rae part.

Song -- Oh, Donna (or maybe it's just "Donna"....I'm not sure...) by Ritchie Valens
Anne W. Jul 21, 2008, 2:21pm EDT
Anne of Green Gables
Anne Boelyn
Anne's Song by Faith No More (it's a horrible song and the lyrics are basically, "this is Anne's song" over and over. Oh, And they are screaming, not singing)
