The couple chose the name Olive for its symbolic connection to joy, peace and friendship. Oleta pays homage to Ryan’s late grandmother, who supported his skating career fiercely and died in October 2020 before getting the chance to meet her great-granddaughter.
“We considered a few names, but Olive kept coming up in church, and we loved how the olive branch symbolizes peace, so we went with it,” Ryan tells PEOPLE.
“Her middle name is Oleta, after my late grandma, who was a huge part of my life. Abigail and I call her Double O Shecks and Ollie O, and I’m sure we will come up with many more nicknames in the future!”
