Reegan Origin and Meaning

The name Reegan is a boy's name.

Reegan is a modern masculine name that represents a variant spelling of Reagan or Regan. The name has Irish and Gaelic origins, derived from "Ó Riagáin" meaning "little king" or "royal." This contemporary spelling with double 'e' emerged in the late 20th century as parents sought distinctive variants of traditional names. While the name Reagan gained recognition in the United States during and after President Ronald Reagan's administration, Reegan as a specific spelling remains relatively uncommon. The name has a strong, assertive sound while the double 'e' spelling gives it a slightly softer, more contemporary feel. Reegan works well cross-culturally and has been slowly gaining in usage.
