Brussels, Belgium (AHN) - Running out of ideas to name their 15th child, a Belgian couple submitted an ad in a local newspaper to get help from the public with ideas.
The couple, Brigitte Dillen and Ivo Driessens, from Merksem, have given all their children names ending with 'y' but cannot think of yet another one for their latest addition.
The new baby will be a brother or sister for Wendy (20), Cindy (18), Jimmy (17), Brendy (16), Sonny (15), Sandy (14), Purdy (13), Chardy (9), Yorry (8), Yony (6), Britney (5), Yenty (3), Ruby (2) and Xanty (1).
According to Ananova.com, the father says: "My wife has said she wants to stop having babies after her 40th birthday. She's 37 now. We still have time for twins."

Jamie and Jools Oliver named one daughter "Poppy Honey". Either one would meet the criteria.

Wow, so tough. They're Belgian so at first I was wondering but you see Wendy and Cindy, they can do Penny or Tracey.

My grandfather's name was Quintus. Yes, he was the 5th of 15. No, not all the rest got numbers too.

Actually that's little Xanty's age.

Aha....I misread it as public submissions for name ideas. Obviously, it's time for bed.

It's Belgium, name them something Mooselimb, so they may be among the last of their peers to hear the phrase "Convert or DIE!!!"

There are so many more names ending with a "y." Even my name, but I wouldn't name my dog that!

Oh shoot, there are hundreds of names, they must just want ugly names, judging by some of them.
