Meaning & origin
Reagann is a modern respelling of Reagan, a surname-turned-first-name that gained traction in the late 1900s. Since its first recorded appearance in 2001, Reagann has remained rare, never cracking the top 1000. Its peak year was 2012, reflecting a surge in spelling variations during that era. While not regionally concentrated, the name is part of a trend of respelling traditional surnames to create unique yet familiar options. Parents drawn to Reagann often pair it with similarly styled names, and it offers the nickname 'Rea' for a softer touch. Despite its low usage, the name carries the strong 'little king' etymology of its Irish roots.
Reagann is a respelling of Reagan, which is the anglicized form of the Irish surname Ó Riagáin, meaning 'descendant of Riagán'. The personal name Riagán is derived from 'riag', meaning 'impulsive' or 'little king'. Originally an Irish surname, Reagan gained popularity as a given name in the late 20th century, partly due to President Ronald Reagan.
