Fans of Taylor Swift believe she disclosed the name of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' fourth child in a stanza of her song "You're On Your Own, Kid."
Twitter users got into a frenzy over the possibility that the 32-year-old pop diva had revealed the unborn child's name prior to his or her arrival in February or March 2023.
Swifties believe they have deciphered an Easter egg indicating that the Deadpool star, 45, and his wife, 35, are intending to name their child Daisy May.
They discerned the name from Swift's lyrics: "I see the great escape, so long, Daisy May / I picked the petals, he loves me not / Something different bloomed, writing in my room / I play my songs in the parking lot."
This occurs two years after she revealed the name of Lively and Reynolds' daughter in her sad song Betty. On the same album, "Folklore," the eleven-time Grammy winner also included the names of James, seven, and Inez, six, in the hit.
She revealed she named all the characters in this narrative after her friends' children at the time. In addition, Swift provided fans with a deeper understanding of the song's meaning, which is told from the perspective of a teenage boy attempting to apologize to his cheating girlfriend, Betty.

Swift previously sampled her friend's oldest on her 2017 hit "Gorgeous." Since the "Cats" actress and Lively have been friends since 2015, it is not surprising that she would pay tribute to the latter's expanding family. At the 63rd annual Grammy Awards in 2021, when accepting her third album of the year award for Folklore, Swift once again mentioned her friend's children. She said she would like to thank James, Inez, and Betty, as well as their parents, who are the second and third individuals she play every new song she composed for.
"Midnights" is off to a record-setting start in the United States after its first day of release. Initial reports to Luminate indicate that the album, which was released on October 21, sold more than 800,000 copies in the United States on its first day across all platforms (multiple digital album download, CD, vinyl and cassette variants).
It has already had the highest sales week for any album since 2017, is the best-selling album of 2022 to date, and has established a record for single-week vinyl album sales in the contemporary era. Initial sales figures for "Midnights" make it the best-selling album of 2022 to date. Harry Styles' "Harry's House" was the previous year's best-selling album, with 620,000 copies sold through the week ending October 13.
As the tracking week concludes on Thursday, October 27, it is expected that the sales for "Midnights" would rise in the coming days. On Sunday, October 30, the set's final sales total is anticipated to be released, along with its anticipated large debut on the multi-metric Billboard 200 albums chart (dated Nov. 4). If "Midnights" opens at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, it will be Taylor Swift's eleventh No. 1 album.
