	"Carrie Anne," a 1967 hit by The Hollies.

	It's is a "popular" city? What's your criteria for "popular"? That just seems an odd word choice. I'd imagine a "popular" city would be a tourist destination. Niagara Falls or Atlantic City for example.

	Nit-picky, but you should take "Anne Shirley" (or - spoiler - "Anne Blythe") for "Anne of Green Gables" since that's the character's surname.

	@emn8: I thought that too (and tried it), but on re-reading the clue, it specifies that it is looking for the name common to both the character AND the book, which is not Anne Shirley (yay you for remembering her ever-important E!).

	how about accepting "orphan annie" for "little orphan annie" as well

	Anne Geddes is a New Zealander not an Australian photographer

	I feel like there are enough Anns, Annes, and Annies not to resort to "Barbara Ann" and "Mary Ann" -- for instance, Ann-Margret, Ann M. Martin, Ann Richards, Anne Robinson, and Ann Taylor would all be good additions.

	Really need to accept Anne Sullivan for Helen Keller's teacher. She's much better know by that than by Annie. Check out her wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Sullivan_Macy

	Anne Murray and Anne of Green Gables aren't doing too well on the results page, I guess all my fellow Canadian Sporclers have already gone to bed.

	Barbara Anne originally done by the Regents, but not to nit-pick, just an FYI as Beach Boys, with the help of Jan Berry of Jan and Dean, had the more-remembered hit.

	No Ann Coulter, Anne Robinson nor Annie Sprinkle?

	RS89:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 08:52 GMT		3 points
	I agree with emh. I've never heard her referred to as "Annie" Sullivan.

	Yay! I'm glad that Ann Arbor was in this.

	@caramba: Yeah, and ironic it was the bigger hit, since they recorded it as a joke since they were mistaken for the Regents at the studio.

	Anne Sexton? More famous than some of the others on the list.

	Good quiz, though I would also include Mary Ann's last name -- Summers. I can't find a better source than Wikipedia, but I know most of their full names are stated on the show at some point. Also, I'm not ashamed to say that I've only heard of Ann Arbor from Lost.

	Huge fan of Annie Leibovitz. I cannot believe I drew a blank. "Sporkle" accurately describes what is happening to neurons in my hippocampus...!
