What’s In A Name?

Shakespeare’s WHAT’S IN A NAME has been used as this episode’s focus. 

Names distinguish people or things and in this episode, all but one of the songs (The Wreck of the Antoinette) refer to a person’s first name. Australian group New World is lamenting the loss of Alice, Marcie Blane wants romance with Bobby, Elvis is courting Marie, and Petula Clark loves Romeo. Susie Thompson asks if Willi Can live up to her expectations and Dion’s heart has been broken by Runaround Sue.
