Reg

The name Reg is more commonly used as a boy name. The meaning of Reg is 'ruler's advisor', or 'counsel power'. The name Reg originated from Latin. Reg is widely considered to be the alternate form and short form of other names like Regina and Reginald. Reg has also been linked to Germanic origin by some sources. The Germanic origin of the name Reg shows that it is also derived from the Germanic name 'Reginwald'. This name is comprised of two parts: 'regin', which means 'advice, decision, or counsel', and the second part 'wald', which means 'power or ruler'. When put together, this name means 'the advice of the ruler' or 'advice of the sovereign'. A notable person with this name in ancient times is Raynald of Chatillon, who served as a Knight in the second crusade. This personality remained in the Holy land after its defeat and later became the ruler, known as the Prince of Antioch from 1153 to 1160. He also married afterward, and this marriage made him the Lord of Oultrejordain. He became even more popular due to his controversial history. The popularity of this notable person and many others contributed to the popularity of the name Reg. The name Reg and many of its variants are now presently used in many countries like The United Sates, The United Kingdom, Canada, Scotland, Germany, and Ireland. Reg is a shorter and therefore, more convenient name for Reginald.
