not quite in the title per se, but i can think of two songs that have names in them...
"song for whoever" by the Beautiful South:-


I love you from the bottom, of my pencil case
I love you in the songs,
I write and sing

Love you because,
you put me in my rightful place
And I love the PRS cheques, that you bring

Cheap, never cheap
I'll sing you songs till you're asleep
When you've gone upstairs I'll creep
And write it all down

Oh Shirley, Oh Deborah, Oh Julie, Oh Jane
I wrote so many songs about you
I forget your name (I forget your name)
Jennifer, Alison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
I forget your name
Jennifer, Alison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
I forget your name

I love your from the bottom of my pencil case
I love the way you never ask me why
I love to write about each wrinkle on your face
And I love you till my fountain pen runs dry

Deep so deep,
the number one I hope to reap
Depends upon the tears you weep,
so cry, lovey cry, cry, cry, cry

Oh Cathy, Oh Alison, Oh Phillipa, Oh Sue
You made me so much money,
I wrote this song for you
Jennifer, Alison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
I wrote this song for you
Jennifer, Alison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabel, too
I wrote this song for you

So let me talk about Mary, a sad story
Turned her grief into glory
Late at night, by the typewriter light,
She ripped his ribbon to shreds

and "Mambo #5" by Lou Bega:-

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo No 5

One, two , three four, five
everybody in the car so come on let's ride
To the liqueur-store around the corner,
the boys say they want some gin and juice
but I really don't wanna
beerbust like I had last week
I must stay deep 'cause talk is a cheap
I like Angela, Pamela, Sandra and Rita
and as I continue you know they're gettin' sweeter
so what can I do I really beg you my Lord
to me flirtin' it's just like a sport
anything fly it's all good let me dump it
please set in the trumpet

a little bit of Monica in my life
a little bit of Erica by my side
a little bit of Rita is all I need
a little bit of Tina is what I see
a little bit of Sandra in the sun
a little bit of Mary all night long
a little bit of Jessica here I am
a little bit of you makes me your man

jump up and down and move it all around
shake your head to the sound put your hands on the ground
take one step left and one step right
one to the front and one to the side
clap your hands once and clap your hands twice
and if it looks like this then you doin' it right.

"Cathy's Clown" was by the Everly Brothers, Suggs (of Madness) also recorded Cecillia. My favourite EVER EVER EVER incident (should that be "inthident"?) on Top Of The Pops was self-styled lord of Brighton, Chrith Yewbankth, announthing "and Now, at ThiTHX it'th THUGGGSSSS with thetthillia"

Others I can think of that I can't seem to see mentioned here are:-

"Oh Carol," by Neil Sedaka

"Carrie-ann" by the Hollies

"Carolina Moon" perry Como

"Lucille" Little Richard

"Layla" Eric Clapton

"Lucy in the sky with diamonds"- Beatles

"Lady Eleanor" Lindisfarne

Lady MADONNA (LOL) the beatles (yeah, it counts, thanks to Mrs Ritchie!)

has Lady Lynda been mentioned, By the Beach Boys?

Ruby...? Kenny Rogers?

"Dear Prudence" by the beatles/ Siouxiea nad Th e BAnshees

"Hey Paula"

would "lady d'arbanville" count, as it was about Patti d'arbanville?

"Diana", by Paul Anka

Mambo Number 5

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Mambo Number 5

One, two, three, four, five
Everybody in the car, so come on

And as I continue you know
They are getting sweeter
So what can I do I really beg and you my Lord

Wendy - by the beach boys.

A really depressing song:

Wendy, Wendy what went wrong
Oh so wrong
We went together for so long

I never thought a guy could cry
'Til you made it with another guy
Oh Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurt so bad

Wendy I wouldn't hurt you like that
No no no
I thought we had our love down pat
Guess I was wrong

The farthest thing from my mind
Was the day that I'd wake up to find
My Wendy
Wendy left me alone
