June Fairchild(1946-2015)

In late 1967, June was the girlfriend of Danny Hutton, who was, along with Cory Wells and Chuck Negron, one of three lead vocalists who were looking to put together a band. When it came to naming the band, June volunteered that she had read a magazine article about the Australian aborigines who, on cold nights, would sleep beside their dogs for warmth. The very coldest weather was called a "three dog night". Thus, the band was named Three Dog Night.
