Jonathan Jacob Meijer, a serial sperm donor, has fathered so many kids the Netherlands govt asked him to stop because he's increasing the chances of inbreeding. Depending on the source, he's either being sued by a mother of his child or the sperm bank.
‘If I think about the consequences this could have for my child I am sick to my stomach.’
Jonathan refused to stop donating sperm, allegedly donating under false names and even going to other countries. He is definitely an overachiever.

In 2015, Vanessa van Ewijk, a carpenter in the Netherlands, decided that she wanted to have a child. She was 34 and single, and so, like many women, she sought out a sperm donor.
She considered conceiving through a fertility clinic, but the cost was prohibitive for her. Instead, she found an ideal candidate through a website called Desire for a Child, one of a growing number of online sperm markets that match candidate donors directly with potential recipients. Ms. van Ewijk was drawn to one profile in particular, that of Jonathan Jacob Meijer, a Dutch musician in his 30s.
Mr. Meijer was handsome, with blue eyes and a mane of curly blond hair. Ms. van Ewijk liked how genuine he appeared. “I spoke to him on the phone and he seemed gentle and kind and well-behaved,” she said. “He liked music, and he talked about his thoughts on life. He didn’t come on strong in any sense. He seemed like the boy next door.”
