Clare Grogan of Altered Images has young adult novel called "Tallulah
and the Teenstars"
This blog recounts a visit to her booksigning, where she says that
"Tallulah Gosh" was a name she almost used to register with Equity.
(Slightly different story from other explanations given, such as that
it was a headline of an article about her in NME or that it was her
private nickname for herself.) Also notes different spelling for the
Amelia Fletcher band - Talulah Gosh. http://la-terrasse.blogspot.com/2008/10/clare-grogan-tallulah-and-teenstars.html
