Otto II (1065-after 1131), Count of Chiny, son of Arnold I, Count of Chiny, and Adélaïs.

He succeeded his father in 1106 and completed the construction of the Abbey of 
Orval that his father had started in 1070, installing the canons in 1124. The 
installation of a Cistercian community in Orval in 1131 marked his last appearance in 
any proceedings.

He married Adelaide (Alix) (1068-1124), daughter of Albert III, Count of Namur and Ida 
of Saxony (widow of Frederick of Lower Lorraine), who gave birth to:
Ida (d. before 1125), married to Godfrey I, Count of Leuven
Oda (d. after 1134), married to Gislebert II, Count of Duras
Hugues, probably died young
Albert, Count of Chiny
Frederick, (d. after 1124), Provost at Reims from 1120
Adalbero II of Chiny-Namur (d. 26 March 1145), Bishop of Liège, 1135-1145
Eustache (d. after 1156), married to a daughter of Wiger de Waremme, Avoué of Liège 
Saint-Lambert and Hesbaye. HIs son Louis de Lumaine was also Avoué of Hesbaye.

Ida (also known as Ida of Namur) and Godfrey (also known as Godfrey the Bearded, 
not to be confused with his the uncle of his father Henry II, Godfrey) were parents of 
Adeliza of Louvain, wife of Henry I, King of England. Oda’s husband Gislebert was son 
of Otto, Count of Duras and therefore the grandson of Giselbert, the first Count of 
Looz, whose family would eventually be merged with the Counts of Chiny with the 
marriage of Otto's great-great granddaughter Jeanne, Countess of Chiny, with Arnold 
IV, Count of Looz.

After his death, Otto was succeeded as Count of Chiny by his son Albert.
