"Bennie and the Jets"
"Oh Danny Boy"
"Johnny Angel"
"Louie Louie"

Daniel-from the Elton John song.

The only ones I can think of are Jesse's Girl and Oh Mickey your so fine LOL. If I think of more I'll post.

Devil went down to Georgia...

"...The boy said my name's Johnny
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet
And you're gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best there's ever been"

Johnny B Good, is another fun Johnny song.

Sublime uses several, but you probably don't want THOSE as references

"Hey Mucho Gusto, Ilama Bradley..."

Curious as to why the name "Jude" would cause problems...I think it's a cool name and a fantastic song!

Hey! Cool idea! I just googled and got this site... lots of options!!!

I don't have any new suggestions, but just a comment... I have a good friend who named his son Jude. He is a big Beatles fan, but if you like that name, who cares what people say? I love the name Jude, and you certainly don't see a lot of Judes around! Just embrace it and go for it!

"Rockabye Sweet Baby James"....James Taylor.

I love Jude too. There are boys named Julian. I don't think Jude would cause any problems.
"Boy Named Sue"....Johnny Cash.
(Just kidding!)

I also don't understand why the name Jude could cause problems????

Well, there's Lady GaGa's song where she sings about two guys - "Fernando" and "Alejandro." I realize you're probably looking for a much older song, but that just came to mind.

My mind is blank now, but I'll post again if I think of something. Please let us know what the problem is with Jude.

Here's a site with 357 of them!

And a few that came to my mind: Maxwell (Maxwell's Silver Hammer), Levon (Elton John) Daniel (Is Travelling Tonight on A Plane--another Elton song) Jack & Diane (Mellancamp)

I am not going to look and see if it's on the top "25", but how about Daniel. (Daniel, my brother, you are older than me...) I love that name.

It didn't occur to me to think about songs before my children were born.
However, for each of my children, I made up a special song
with his or her name in the song.
I didn't create the melodies.
I used existing songs and created new words just for them.
In fact, I just reminded myself of a cute nostalgia moment.
I used to sing "Oh Shoshana, don't you cry for me . . . "
When she got to preschool and heard "Oh Susanna, don't you cry . . . "
she informed the teachers that they had the lyrics wrong.

It is, sadly, in the top 25 (but not the top 10), but I like James if you're going for songs. I love James Taylor and like the song "Sweet Baby James."

Billy and Bill have been repeated several times that I can think of.
My husband said, Danny Boy.
