Regie Origin and Meaning

The name Regie is a boy's name.

Regie is a masculine name that typically serves as a nickname or variant of Reginald, which derives from Germanic elements meaning 'counsel' and 'power.' It can also function as a shortened form of Regis, from Latin meaning 'ruler.' In French-speaking regions, the pronunciation tends toward 'reh-ZHEE,' while English speakers typically say 'REJ-ee.' This versatile short form has a casual, friendly quality while maintaining connections to more formal traditional names. Regie has seen sporadic usage throughout the 20th century but never became common in English-speaking countries. The name sometimes appears as a standalone given name rather than just a nickname, particularly in regions influenced by French naming patterns.
