Our 200th Post, Using Sharon's Name for Music Bands? Sharon and The Esalen Institute and More on Roman

Today is our 200th Post!  Boy time sure flies, doesn't it?

Do we really need a rock band named Sharon Tate?  I have to admit I was not very fond of the group 'Sharon Tate's Baby' because of what that brought to mind.  I wonder if there is a legal action that can be taken to keep someone's name sacred, especially when it is a real name of a person who has passed?  It just doesn't seem right to me.  With saying that, here is the link that mentions this new band with Sharon's name:
