Ryan Reynolds has revealed the name of his and Blake Lively’s fourth child. The couple attended the New York City premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine on July 22, where Reynolds gave a speech that paid tribute to his wife and four children.

“Her outfit is amazing, spoiler alert,” the actor said of Lively’s red bodysuit, before revealing their youngest child’s name: Olin. “I love that my entire family is here,” he added.

Reynolds and Lively already had three daughters — James, Inez, and Betty — when they welcomed Olin in February 2023, and became a family of six. (While the couple decided their baby’s name, they have yet to reveal the sex of the child.)

In 2020, family friend Taylor Swift revealed the name of the pair’s third child on the Folklore track “Betty,” which was named after their daughter. In a May 13 interview on TODAY, Reynolds was asked if the name of his and Lively’s fourth child was hidden on Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department. In response, the actor joked that Swift named the child herself.

“We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name is, and I'll say this: We're still waiting,” he told hosts Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie. “She’s a prolific writer — I mean, what are we doing here?” he added, before joking that Swift should hurry up and choose a name. “Lazy is not a word I'd attach to Taylor,” the actor later clarified.

Reynolds and Lively’s baby name reveal comes after their recent public appearance at Swift’s Eras Tour concert in Madrid, Spain, which they attended on May 29 with their daughters, Betty, Inez, and James.

Swift also gave an onstage shoutout to their girls during the show. “I have to say that on Folklore, some of my favorite characters are named James, Inez, and Betty,” she told the thousands-strong crowd, referencing the song “Betty.”
