You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

^^I don't think most of those has a name in the title. Isn't She Lovely has a name mentioned in the lyrics, but it's not in the title. But there's no name at all in songs like Summertime and Never Can Say Goodbye.
