PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. (WTAJ) — Do you have the perfect names in mind for Punxsutawney Phil’s babies? If so, now’s your chance to offer your suggestions.

The Punxsutawney Groundhog Club has placed suggestion boxes around the town of Punxsutawney for anyone to write names for Phil and Phyllis’ new arrivals. Anyone in the community and those visiting can submit their name suggestions until May 9.

The club will announce the names of the woodchuck pups on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 12.

The world-famous groundhog surprised everyone in March when he became the father of two healthy babies, a boy and a girl. Punxsutawney Groundhog Club Inner Circle President Thomas Dunkel said it was the first time in 138 years Phil had children.

Phil and Phyllis lived at the Punxsutawney Memorial Library in their climate-controlled burrow, where they were cared for. Plans are now in the works to relocate the couple and their children to a new home at Gobblers Knob.
