Making a playlist with the only rule being it has to be a name only in the title. Our playlist so far:

Layla
Lola
Maggie May
Angie
Beth
Carrie
Oh Sherrie (an exception)
Jolene
Lola Montez
Cecilia
Mickey
Jeremy

What else does TexAgs have?

Like, every Lumineers song...

Ophelia
Cleopatra
Gloria
Angela

Bertha
Casey Jones
Althea
Jack Straw

Tennessee Jed
Cassidy

Althea

Jessica
Lucifer
Frankenstein
Tom Sawyer
Moby Dick
Pancho and Lefty
Rhiannon

ETA - Amanda

I knew I was missing a Fleetwood Mac but couldn't think of it. I'll have to get with the judges on a ruling for "Pancho and Lefty." We love that song but I don't think it qualifies.

Another Fleetwood Mac -Sara

while the OP determines if Pancho and Lefty is acceptable, we should probably keep Reuben And Cherise waiting in the wings.....just in case

Add to the docket: "Me and Bobby McGee"

So we debated Me and Bobby McGee but ruled it a "No". We may revisit.

The jury is still out on Pancho and Lefty.

Some good ones I hadn't thought of. Keep them coming.

Ok. So no pronouns. Proper names only but "and" is still possible, subject to a ruling from the Court of Appeals. Then I hereby submit "By-Tor and the Snow Dog".

Lots of great recommendations. We are still debating "and". My 11 year old and I are against multiple persons in the title. My 10 year old wants them. Waiting fo the wife to chime in. If we have a tie, I'll post an option to vote Some others that have been thought of:

Mr Crowley
Matthew - John Denver
Doc Holliday
Black Bart

We have ruled Mr. Brownstone is included. So titles are allowed.

This has been a fun exercise and I have been reminded of some I should have thought of (Lenny, Rhiannon, Roxanne). One we came up with was Amie but I forgot to put it on the list. I also now have a long list of new to me songs to check out.
