French
"little queen"
Reinette was the childhood nickname of Madame La Pompadour, perhaps a cute short form for Regina or Reina but hardly worthy of the full name on the birth certificate today.
Thai
"Queen"
No, not a creative spelling of Tyla - Thailah literally means the Thai Queen.
Georgian
"queen of the house"
Georgian variant of Katayun, sometimes used as a Georgian form of Katherine. Diminutives include Keti, Keto and Ketino. This is the birth name of British-Georgian musician Katie Melua.
Persian
Katayun derives from the Persian elements kata "house, city" and bânu "wife". In Iranian mythology, Katay(o)un is the wife of Goshtāsb and the mother of Esfandiār.
English
"queen"
A bit too close to "quandary" and "queen".
