Rio - Duran Duran
Vanity Kills - ABC (you know, that chick who was a "Nasty girl")

Enola Gay really doesn't refer to a girl but to the B29 which dropped the Atomic bomb on Nagasaki. Although during WW2 they named the planes after girls.

Hosanna by Ultravox isn't a girls name but something used in church literature. Rio is a song about the city, not about a girl.

Denise - Blondie
Marliese - Fischer-Z
Oh Patti - Scritti Politti
Lena - Twee Belgen
Medusa - Clan Of Xymox (although a Greek godess also, like Venus)
Jeanny - Falco
Julia - Eurythmics
Anna - Trio

Well, look at Mister Anal Retentive.[:D] Okay, you got me. I just figured anything counted, intent of the songwriters or not. (I actually know a girl named Hosanna. I guess she don't count, huh?[:D]) Vanessa Del Rio (smut queen) or Rio Rita (comic strip heroine) must not count, either.

Correction - it was in fact the name of the pilot's mother. Hey mom, this is for you! [B)]
