Name: Reagan
Meaning: Reagan is an Irish-origin name meaning "little king" or "descendant of the ruler."
Origin: The first name Reagan originates from the Irish surname Ó Ríagáin, meaning "descendant of Ríagán." The Gaelic name Ríagán is derived from "rí," meaning "king," combined with a diminutive suffix, giving it the implied sense of "little king" or "royal." It gained popularity as a unisex given name in English-speaking countries during the late 20th century, partly influenced by U.S. President Ronald Reagan.
Story: The name *Reagan* is of Irish origin, derived from the Gaelic surname *Ó Ríagáin*, meaning "descendant of Riagán." The root *Riagán* itself is thought to come from the Old Irish word *rí* ("king") combined with a diminutive suffix, giving it the interpretation "little king" or "son of the ruler." Historically, Ó Ríagáin was a prominent clan name in medieval Ireland, associated with leadership and nobility.
As a first name, Reagan gained popularity in English-speaking countries during the late 20th century, particularly in the United States. Its rise was partly influenced by *Ronald Reagan* (1911–2004), the 40th U.S. President, whose charismatic leadership and political legacy made the name synonymous with strength and authority.
Though traditionally a masculine name, Reagan has become increasingly gender-neutral, with modern usage leaning toward females in recent decades. It embodies qualities of ambition, resilience, and regal heritage, reflecting its etymological roots. Variations like *Reagan*, *Reagan*, and *Raegan* are common, maintaining the name's phonetic charm while adapting to contemporary trends.
