Just discovered that the Family Record Centre in London has exhibitions on the web. If you follow these links, you can see an example of an English death certificate. http://www.familyrecords.gov.uk/frc/exhibitions/dickens4.htm Modern certificates will have slightly different information on them, but you'll only get a child's name if they are the informant reporting the death.

The deceased children will not be listed, but one of the children may be the informant in which case their name and address and relationship will be given.
