A Belgian couple - whose 15 children's names are linked to rock legend Elvis Presley - say they are battling to think of a name for their 16th child.

Jean-Pierre and Carine Antheunis, who live in Gent in Belgium, have been Elvis fans for most of their lives - and their children's names include Elvis, Priscilla, Dakota and Tennessee.

But the pair say that they don't know what to call their new baby boy.

"If it had been a girl we would have called her Linda. Elvis once had a lover with that name," said Jean-Pierre.

"But we have run out of ideas for a boy."

They are now thinking of calling him Ohio: "There's no connection with Elvis, but it's in America," he added.

Speaking to the local newspaper, Het Laatste Nieuws, Jean-Pierre said they would not need to worry about finding more names in the future, as "Ohio" would be their last.

"My wife is now 40 and we have decided to stop there. Sixteen children are enough for us," he said. - Ananova.com
