At one point during the event, Reynolds took to the stage (along with his co-stars and the Deadpool & Wolverine director, Shawn Levy) to deliver a speech and he gave a special nod to his wife and four kids. And that’s when we heard the name of Reynolds and Lively’s fourth child for the first time.
According to Good Morning America, the Deadpool star said, “I want to start by saying thank you to my wife Blake, who is here. Her outfit is amazing—spoiler alert!”
“I want to thank my kids—James, Inez, Betty, Olin—who are here,” Reynolds added. “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.”
As of right now, we still don’t know the gender of little Olin, however, according to baby name site Nameberry, it is traditionally a boy’s name of Swedish origin meaning “ancestor, to inherit, legacy; from the low-lying land.” The name experts also inform us that “Olin was once a Top 1000 name in the US, peaking in 1903 at #322, but went into decline during the 30s and by the 60s, it was out of the charts.”
Reynolds and Lively secretly welcomed their fourth child in February 2023. Right after the Super Bowl LVII, the Gossip Girl alum shared an Instagram slideshow to Instagram where her baby bump is no longer there, and she happily revealed the news in her caption, writing, “Puppy Bowl Sunday 2023...been busy.”
