Can you name 5 female Canadian singers who have the same initials?

I stumbled on this a while back when putting CDs in order noticing that 3 singers had the same initials. I couldn't help but wonder what were the chances. And this year I found two more.
So, anyway, I thought I'd ask if you guys can find who they are.

Carroll Baker (singer)
Colette Baron-Reid
Colette Boky
Charity Brown
Colleen Brown

Browsing brought me here, but Google let me pick these five in a couple of minutes, and it's only two letters into the alphabet. Many folk having the same initials in any list of professionals is not as unusual as we may think. :Hug2:

Wow. I never would have thought this could be so common. But RedRajah has 3 of the 5 I had in mind. The other 2 that I had were Amanda Marshall and Ariane Moffatt. Bufty, how did you get google to give you those 5? I tried and couldn't get anything. Did you offer initials?

Google gave me a list of female Canadian singers in alphabetical order - it was in Wikipedia I think. All I did was run down the list and pick 5 with the same initials. I suspect the others did exactly the same.

What's perhaps of note is that the five singers you have there all have appeared on the Canadian charts by recording a song in Canada. The same cannot be said about the other lists provided.

Alanis Morissette - Too Hot (recorded in Toronto)
Anne Murray - Snowbird (r. in Toronto)
Alannah Myles - Black Velvet (r. in Toronto)
Amanda Marshall - Birmingham (r. in Toronto)
Ariane Moffatt - Tous les sens (r. in Montreal)
