Ryan Reynolds has dropped a hint about what his next child with Blake Lively is called.

The confession came during an appearance on the Today show to promote his new movie If.

Speaking to hosts Savannah Guthire and Hoda Kotb, Reynolds teased the name of his fourth child.

"Taylor Swift keeps dropping it into lyrics!" Guthrie said.

This was likely in reference to the song Betty from Swift's 2020 album Folklore.

The song contains the names of Reynolds and Lively's other three kids - Betty, James and Inez.

Guthrie questioned whether or not the latest addition to the Lively-Reynolds tribe had been name-dropped on Swift's newest album.

That album, of course, being The Tortured Poets Department.

In response, Reynolds, 47, joked: "We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child's name is, and I'll say this: We're still waiting."

Talking of his friend, Reynolds said: "She's a prolific writer - I mean, what are we doing here?

"And lazy is not a word I'd attach to Taylor."

Reynolds' fourth child with Lively was born in February 2023, but nothing has been publicly divulged about the child - neither the age or the gender.

Whether its name does pop up in a Swift song remains to be seen.

In a 2021 interview, Reynolds revealed that his kids didn't know they'd be referenced in Swift's song until it was complete.

Reynolds said: "We surprised them with it.

"They didn't know. They had no idea.

"We don't tell them anything; we find they're most compliant if you offer them no access to outside information."

Reynolds and Lively have been going strong for over a decade, having wed in 2012.

The two met in 2010 on the set of The Green Lantern.

However, they were both in other relationships at the time - Reynolds with Scarlett Johansson and Lively with Penn Badgley.

When those relationships came to an end, the two started dating in 2011.

The couple have stuck by one rule throughout their marriage.

Lively told Entertainment Tonight: "When Ryan and I got together, we made a rule not to work at the same time.

"So that we could always prioritize our personal life.

"“That takes working really hard when we're not.

“Just like financial planning and sustaining that — it takes balance.

"I'm used to working hard and going and going and going and going and not stopping.

"Especially, Gossip Girl was six years of my life, and we were sometimes shooting three episodes at once."
