In Bob Dylan's Desolation Row, he mentions Ophelia.
Now Ophelia, she's 'neath the window
For her I feel so afraid
On her twenty-second birthday
She already is an old maid
To her, death is quite romantic
She wears an iron vest
Her profession's her religion
Her sin is her lifelessness
And though her eyes are fixed upon
Noah's great rainbow
She spends her time peeking
Into Desolation Row.
I've never read Hamlet, so I don't know if it's related or not.

A famous and historical artifact of this name is a painting by Sir John Everett Millais of Ophelia from William Shakespeare's Hamlet. He was a member of the Pre-Raphaelites. Millais completed the painting in 1852, and it currently hangs in the Tate Britain art gallery in London. The painting features Ophelia singing while floating in a river just before she drowns, as described in Act IV, Scene VII of the play in a speech by Queen Gertrude. Although I personally would never have normally used the name, I now think of it differently because whenever I hear the name, it reminds me of that sad, but very beautiful painting. :)
