Answer
Hi, here are some suggestions for the names provided:

Sara : No brainer - Fleetwood Mac's "Sara" from the Tusk album
Jenn : How about Tommy Tutone's "867-5309 (Jenny)"?
Amy : Pure Prairie League did a great song called "Amie" in the 1970s.  Not the exact spelling, but close enough?  It's a very popular hit from the old days.  "Amy, whatcha gonna do..."
Tina : Gary Lewis & The Playboys did a song called "Tina", and supposedly so did Frank Sinatra, but I hadn't heard the latter.
Jessica : The Allman Brothers did a very popular instrumental called "Jessica".  

You can probably pull most of these examples on either Youtube.com or grooveshark.com!  
Good luck with everything!
