Nico Bolzico and Solenn Heusaff recently had their youngest daughter baptized while on a family vacation in Argentina.
In the short clip Nico shared on Instagram, the family of four can be seen wearing light, neutral colors, with Solenn holding Maëlys Lionel, and Thylane wearing a light green dress. The highlight, in our opinion? Ate Thylane wiping Baby Maëlys’ head dry after the priest poured water over her head, aww!

Maëlys Lionel
Netizens couldn’t help but get curious about Maëlys’ name. After one person remarked, “Lionel Messi, the GOAT and from Argentina,” Nico responded with, “GOAT.”
In a post shortly after Maëlys was born, Nico also explained “how he could name his daughter Lionel.”
At the time, Nico said, “A lot of people that just watched Solenn’s video is asking me how I could name my daughter Lionel? The reason is I need her to feel Argentinian. She feels so French already because she’s our second daughter.”
The name Lionel pays homage to Argentinian football player Lionel Messi, whom Nico was celebrating on the day of Maëlys’ birth, as it coincided with Argentina qualifying for the World Cup Finals.
Ate Thylane
In a previous vlog, Solenn opened up about her second pregnancy and her excitement for Thylane becoming being an older sister.
Solenn said, “Next week, she’s going to be a sister. She’s going to be an ate. Telling her the changes we’re going to have in the house, trying to get her used to that–it’s going to be quite an emotional ride.”
Solenn and Nico got married in 2016 and welcomed first-born Thylane in 2020. Solenn announced her second pregnancy in July 2022 and gave birth to Maëlys last December 2022.
