Songs with men's name in the title

Pretty sure Rikki is female...After a Google, the name seems to come from Rikki Ducornet a (female) classmate of Donald Fagen.

One of my favorites...

"Daniel" by Bat for Lashes

 

The Kingsmen - "Louie Louie"

 

That could well be true, but like Bobby McGee, any ambiguity in gender - implied by a name - is, in my opinion open to interpretation to the listener.

When the songs came out, we (male and female) could both enjoy the same song and not feel compelled to research the song. If it spoke to us, that was enough. Just like poetry.

(Yes, both those songs were pre google). LOL.

Sean - The Proclaimers
