There's also an Amy in Sondheim's "Company." Really, you're in luck if you have any one of the women's names in that musical. So Jenny, Joanne, Sarah, Susan, and Amy.
According to Sondheim on Sondheim, in one of the earlier versions of that show, Amy didn't marry Paul, but she ended up marrying Bobby at the end, and the show ended with a song called "A Multitude of Amys," or something like that.
Bah - my pad thai is too sweet and they didn't give me any lime wedges.

Yeah, "Multitudes of Amys."

Let us hear no more complaints from the Amys.
I didn't even complain! I was too busy hiding under the desk pounding my head against the floor to escape that Other earworm that is so very not Sondheim.
I think I hate all songs with my name in them: Wake Up Little Susie, Boy Named Sue, Crocodile Rock, Susie Q, Oh Susanna.
I especially dislike being called Susie.
When I was a kid I loved the song "Tom Dooley." (Yeah, I was kind of morbid.)
That's the only "Tom" song that comes to mind....
Not a lot of Heathers in pop music, to my knowledge. But we get a pretty decent movie, so I'm ok with it.

How about "A Boy Named Sue"?
