Oh - and I edited this with stuff I missed that previous posters added. So those of you who remembered Mother Nature's Son, Mother Superior, The King of Marigold, Desmond and Molly Jones, and Muddy Waters, thanks much (you know who you are). :-)

I'll try to keep editing it if we find more.

[TheBeatleHead]

You forgot Ringo in Honey Don't, when he calls George's solo.

[Taibak]

Added. Amusingly enough, that song is why George was on the list. :-)

[Taibak]

Oh - and there's one name I haven't put on the list yet: Semolina Pilchard. The reason he's not there yet is because I'm not sure of what the lyric is. I know John said it's a reference to Detective Norman Pilcher, but I've always heard the line as 'pilchard,' like the fish. Can anyone confirm what John is actually singing there?
