Last month, the popular Nashville country trio Lady Antebellum announced that they were changing their name to Lady A due to the term antebellum's unfortunate association with slavery. Which was all well and good, except for the fact that there was already a 61-year-old Black woman named Anita White who had been performing as Lady A for decades and wasn't happy about her name being taken. And now Lady A the band is suing Lady A the singer over their right to use that name.
