Regeane is in Origin.
Regeane is an uncommon feminine given name that likely blends several traditions. It can be read as a variant of Regan/Reagan, the Anglicized Irish name from Riagan meaning "little king" or "impetuous," or as an altered spelling of Portuguese/Brazilian Regiane or French Rejane, both ultimately related to Latin Regina "queen." The final -e and soft g invite comparison with French forms such as Régine and Réjeanne.
Usage is exceedingly rare in records but gained a small profile in late-20th-century fiction: Alice Borchardt's novel The Silver Wolf features a heroine named Regeane, lending a medieval, romantic tone. Related variants and cognates include Regan, Reagan, Raegan, Reganne, Regina, Régine, Regiane, Rejane, and Réjeanne; diminutives include Reggie, Rae, and Gina. Depending on etymology, meanings range from "queen" to "little king/royal one," giving the name a broadly regal sense with a distinctive, literary edge.
