Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively Announce the Name of Baby No. 4. Olin is the new baby’s name, which the parents disclosed after welcoming their fourth child last year. Speaking at the Deadpool & Wolverine premiere in New York on July 22, Ryan called out their four daughters, Betty, four, Inez, seven, and James, nine.
“I want to start by saying thank you to my wife Blake, who is here,” he shared from the stage. “I want to thank my kids James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here: I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing—that is, the contents of this movie—that happens in your wondrous life.” He added, “I love that my entire family is here.”
Fans have been waiting a long time for this announcement, since Ryan only hinted at the fact that friend Taylor Swift did not divulge the nickname in her Tortured Poets Department album in a brief appearance on the Today show in May.
“We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name is,” he laughed, “and I will say this, we’re still waiting.” Undoubtedly, as a family of six, their house has turned into “a zoo,” as the Marvel actor puts it. On CNBC’s Power Lunch last year, the 47-year-old stated that he and the Gossip Girl alum are “very excited” about their newest family member. However, he wouldn’t have it any other way.
“Look, we wouldn’t do this four times if we didn’t love it,” the Deadpool actor shared. “Everybody’s doing great. Everybody’s actually doing fantastic.” Following Blake’s 2023 Super Bowl Sunday picture, in which she posed without a baby belly, fans initially conjectured that she had given birth. The 36-year-old wrote, “Puppy Bowl Sunday 2023,” as the Instagram post’s description. “been busy.”
