Ryan Reynolds Teases About Naming 4th Child After a Taylor Swift Song

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s fourth child’s name is still a mystery as Ryan jokes about Taylor Swift’s influence

During a recent appearance on the ‘Today’ show, Ryan Reynolds playfully dodged questions about the name of his and Blake Lively’s newest addition.

The couple’s older children, Betty, Ines, and James, have been mentioned in Swift’s songs, including ‘Betty’ from her 2020 album ‘Folklore’. Reynolds humorously acknowledged Swift’s prolific songwriting skills, joking, “She’s such a prolific writer — I mean, what chance do we have? And lazy is definitely not a word I’d use for Taylor.”

Reynolds previously revealed that they surprised their daughters with their inclusion in Swift’s songs, keeping it a secret until the songs were completed. The couple has maintained secrecy around their fourth child, whose arrival was announced in February 2023.

Despite their high-profile status, Reynolds and Lively prefer to keep details about their children private, including not finding out the sex of their children until birth. Reynolds recently teased their youngest child’s presence while announcing his new series on social media, showcasing his playful approach to parenting.
