Reyes Origin and Meaning

The name Reyes is a boy's name meaning "kings, royalty".

This regal Spanish name combines several of today's top trends: names that end in S, last names that can also be first names, royal-sounding names, and unisex options. It has a long history of use in Spain as both a surname and a given name.

The name came about from a title given to the Virgin Mary, "The Virgin of the Kings", inspired by the legend that she appeared to the 13th century King of Castile, Ferdinand III, and told him that he was succeed in battle.

Not to be confused with Reese or Rees, it is more popular for girls in Spain, though even more popular as a surname. In the US, however, predominantly used as a boy name, and was given to nearly 60 baby boys in 2023.
