About Reegan
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.
Reegan is also given to girls.
Pronounced REE-gun.
As of October 2026, Reegan ranked #14788 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #2371 in 2012.
