Taylor Swift fans ‘work out’ the name of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s fourth child after he drops huge hint

Taylor Swift's fans have yet another reason to be swooning with excitement following Ryan Reynolds' latest admission.

The 47-year-old Deadpool star, and his wife, Gossip Girl royalty 36-year-old Blake Lively, welcomed their fourth child in February last year.

The couple share James, nine, Inez, seven, and Betty, four, as well as their latest arrival, whose gender or name has yet to have been shared publicly.

Four years ago, Taylor shared Betty's name on the song, aptly named 'Betty', on her folklore album.

She also included James and Inez's names on the track.

Yesterday (13 May), in an interview with Today, Ryan joked about Taylor having baby-naming rights.

He said: "We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child's name will be.

"And, we'll say this - we're still waiting, so Taylor, let's maybe start.

"You know, she's a prolific writer.

"I mean, what are we doing here? And lazy is not a word I'd attach to Taylor."

Swifties have gone full steam ahead with Ryan's quip, sharing their assumptions over what the baby name will be, and theorising that Taylor may have already shared the name on one of her newest songs.

Taylor released her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, on 19 April.

Fans have taken to social media to share their theories.

One person wrote: "It's either Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus."

The inspiration for that one is pretty simple, as Taylor's song is literally called 'Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus'.

Many other people echoed the same thought.

Somebody else offered: "Clara is my guess."

Taylor's song 'Clara Bow' includes the lyrics, "You look like Clara Bow in this light

/ Remarkable."

A third guessed: "It's Robin! The song is Robin on her new album about a little boy or girl."

The lyrics to 'Robin' include: "You got the dragonflies above your bed / You have a favourite spot on the swing set."

And a fourth cheekily joked: "Definitely not Aimee," referring to Taylor's song 'thanK u AImee' that many think is an ode to her long-standing beef with Kim Kardashian.

Opening up about his family dynamics, Ryan shared with Today: "Four kids, it's just a zoo."

He joked: "When we had our fourth I was so happy because I always wanted to make sure we always have someone on hand to give me strep throat.

"Now, we're covered. There's just never a full clean slate of health, ever."

We hope he's fully stocked with cold and flu meds - and that we get the name of baby number four soon!
