Aside from evening prayer for nuns, somewhat well known from James Bond- the 1967 & 2006 Casino Royale:

"In the novel, the character explains that she was born "on a very stormy evening", and that her parents named her "Vesper", Latin for "evening" and Bond then gives her name to a cocktail he has recently invented. The "Vesper" became popular after the novel's publication. The actual name for the drink (as well as its complete recipe) was mentioned on screen for the first time in the 2006 film adaptation of Casino Royale."

"Middle English, from Latin, evening, evening star"

Also:

the evening star, especially Venus; Hesperus.

Also called vesper bell. a bell rung at evening.

vespers, Ecclesiastical:

-a religious service in the late afternoon or the evening.

-the sixth of the seven canonical hours, or the service for it, occurring in the late afternoon or the evening.

They were part of the Triple Alliance with Germany and Austria-Hungary before WWI, which was a defensive alliance, but when WWI started they considered Austria-Hungary the aggressor and initially stayed neutral before later joining the Entente.

Got 10 out of 10 somehow :O

Lion's mane and Joe Camel are the lucky guesses

Camel was something of a guess for me but 1997 seemed about right for the death of cigarette advertising. I knew Aunt Jemima was a lot more recent and Ronald McDonald is still around, only one I wasn't sure about was Doughboy cos we don't have that product in the UK haha
