Additional Information:

The name Règán has Irish orish but is an Americanized and respelled as Raegan, , coming from an old Irish surname “Ó Riagáin” (a descendent of Riagán) – which in turn originated from the Gaelic "riodhgach" meaning ‘impulsive.’ The Ó Riagáins were widespread in medieval Irish kingdoms and important because they were very active against the Viking invaders. We think most would agree that “impulsive” is a charming meaning reflective of those feisty Irish natures. As a given name, Reagan became popularized in the United States as a unisex name (apparently in honor of President Ronald Reagan). Regan, however, has long been considered a female given name (Shakespeare used Regan for one of his characters in King Lear). The spelling of Raegan is very American. For most other English-speakers, this would be considered a misspelling.
