Not to pick any nits, but "Hey Jude" was written by Paul for Julian Lennon, and therefore the titular Jude is actually a dude. And that even rhymes. Also, I think someone is mistaking "Take A Load Off, Annie" for "The Weight", which is by The Band, not the Marshall Tucker Band. But Id take that back if presented with hard evidence.
That said, a few tasty numbers:
"Maggie's Farm" and "Visions of Johanna" by Bob Dylan
"Suzanne" and "So Long, Marianne" by Leonard Cohen
and my absolute-ist favorite-ist song of all time is "Naima" by John Coltrane.
How about the most unusual female names in song titles? "Velouria" by the Pixies is a contender, I'd say. Beautiful name, though.

Yeah, it definitely would, and in fact the tune began life as "Hey Jules." But somewhere along the line it changed, for the better I think, to "Jude." It would be tricky to pull off that -ess sound at the end of the first line with the way MaCa extends it and kind of bends the note a little...sing it in your head, it sounds awkward. "Jude" gives him the nice, blunt, hard ending consonant so when the note stretches out it isn't as unwieldy.
