Fan names child after Hoosiers hit
A fan of The Hoosiers wants to name one of his unborn twins after the band's hit single 'Worried About Ray'.

Lead singer Irwin Sparkes also received an offer to be godfather to the autograph-hunter's twins while holidaying in Mallorca, according to the Daily Star.

A source said: "Irwin was approached by a guy in Mallorca who asked for his autograph, they chatted for a bit then went their separate ways.

"An hour later he came back with his pregnant girlfriend. He asked Irwin to be godfather to his unborn twins and promised they'd name one Ray if they had a boy."

The new Hoosiers single 'Cops and Robbers' is out on Monday.
