I found a place saying my birthday song was Battle of New Orleans by Johnny Horton.
Never heard it.

For the week I was born, the Beatles held the top 5 slots on the Billboard chart. Five! Lucky I didn't get named Ringo.

Re: Songs of the Year
Yeah, I would consider myself pretty blessed with a name like that.
All four Beatle names actually went down in popularity during the 1960s — and since, also.
Lennon, Harrison, and Dylan as first names, however, have been tearing through the roof.
