| Name origin | 🌍 Irish |
Reagan is an Irish surname that has morphed into a unisex name in modern times. The clan name Ó Riagáin indicates a descendant of Riagán. The personal name Ryagan developed from the Irish Gaelic "riodhgach" meaning "impulsive." The Riagáins have become widespread in the Irish and important medieval kingdoms since they were very active against the Viking invaders. As a given name, Reagan made popular in the United States something to say in honor of the 40th President Ronald Reagan of the United States. However, Reagan's name appeared on US lists for babies before Reagan's term. Its initial use was probably more in response to the emerging popularity of Irish names in the 1970s.
Personality
The number one personality is a leader - strong and competitive. They are willing to initiate action and take risks. One personality strive for effort and have the ability to apply their creative and innovative thinking skills with strong determination. Obstacles are met head-on with such mental stamina and energy that it is best to step aside. They resent order-taking, so don't try telling them what to do either. They are intensely active personalities, but they are also known as starters rather than classifieds. They have a propensity to become bored and will quickly move on to the next project if not challenged properly. They are the ones who think up and put brilliant new ideas into action, but they are not the ones who should stay and manage them. This personality has an enthusiastic and pioneering spirit. They are original.
Popularity
Reagan is a given name used for both girls and boys in the United States, although it is slightly more popular for girls. The name is expected to make the child's Top 1000 list in the next couple of years (which means the name has so little use for babies in the US right now it's barely detectable). It just hasn't managed to gain a foothold as a masculine name. For women, however, the story is a bit different. Reagan debuted on the female charts in 1975, perhaps inspired by the character of Regan MacNeil in the classic horror film "The Exorcist" (released in late 1973). 1975 also marks the year Ronald Reagan stepped down as Governor of the State of California. Mostly, however, we believe the parents were inspired by the “Irishness” of the name. Reagan slipped out of the girl's series for a time, but returned in the early 1990s, jumping more than 600 positions on the girl's nomenclature charts in just five years. Reagan has yet to secure a spot on the Top 100 most favored girl's name list, but she seems headed that way. For boys, Reagan first appeared on the charts in 1996 and hasn't seen the same successful use as her female counterpart. Despite her likely association with our 40th US president, Reagan still has a simple elegance as a woman's name. We also like the “impulsive”.

I didn't like the president, so I would never name my child after him.
It's not politics. It's naming your children after'someone you admire or respect (a good reason not to hold your breath waiting for little "Clintons" to start being born). I also named my daughter after our 40th president. She's getting a good, Classical education, and thus is likely to be too intelligent ever to become a "fanatical Democrat".
My son's name is Regan and he is 16 months old. We wanted an irish name and the research we did, it means royal, and little king. he's the best!!!
My new great-niece was born yesterday and they named her Reagan - love it!
My wife and I couldn't think of a good name for our daughter and with about an hour to go before she was born my sister in law came up with Reagan. We both thought it was perfect and since my sister in law's name is Faith we named her Reagan Faith. We get many complements on the name. We love it.
My name is Reagan Sophia (Ray-gen) I am not named after the pres.I like my name because my grandma named me. i dont like it because they pronouce it (ree-gen). I hate that! By the way i am 9!
I named my daughter Reagan Riley and our last name is Davis!!
I think this name would be cool, for a cat maybe, if it weren't for the associations it provokes. It is a highly charged name. I wonder if generations to follow will similarly latch on to names like this, forever marking their offspring as the'spawn of people who naievly embrace corruption, i.e. in 2025 will there be people posting comments saying "I want to name my baby Rumsfeld, whether It's a boy or girl!"
Not even a regular fad-name, but one with politics dragged into it. How gauche. Your little "Reagans" are going turn fanatically Democrat as soon as they're out from under your roofs. Then you'll end up with little girls named "Clinton" as grandchildren, just to complete the vicious cycle.
I am naming my daughter Raygan. I love the name and have had it picked out for years. Now in Feb I will have a litte Raygan.
I just had a baby boy who I named Jayce. If he would have been a girl, he would have been a Reagan Marie. I absolutely love the name Reagan. It's classy, unique, & elegant. :)
one of my best friends is named reagan and he is a boy. is that wierd❤️ whenever i say 'my friend reagan....' people always think i am talking about a girl. is there any other boys named reagan❤️❤️
My soon to be daughter will be Reagan Addison and she will have an older'sister, Emma Taylor. I think It's adorable!!!
My name is Reagan. I was named after the president and my middle name is Elizabeth. I absolutely love my first name!(:
My 10 year old daughter is Reagan Lamb, The middle is a family name. I love it and so does everyone who meets her. Although it took my family a while to like, it fits her. I'm expecting another girl in Septemebr and just wish my DH and I could find a name we like as well.
I plan on naming my new daughter Reagan. It represents stren'th, courage and all that America can be.
My daughter's name is Reagan Joy and our last name is wonderfully Irish so it goes along well with it too. The middle name was my mother's name. My parents knew the President when he was Governor...they actually met when he was running for the office. So we find the tribute to him quite appropriate. That, and the fact that we have been active in politics for our entire careers...;). She fits her name to a "t" and has been a "joy" since her birth in 2018. Such a blessing!
We named our baby Ursula, she was born in March 2021. It is a beautiful and strong name. Our girl is very beautiful too. I did not know about the'sea monster from the little mermaid, I did see the movie before but I paid no attention to the'sea monster. It is still a beautiful name and our lives are not guided by Disney. Ursula is also the name of several authors, a saint, Ursula Andress... there are more role models then sea monsters. It is a beautiful, unique and strong name! Cheers for all the Ursulas out there!
Named after one of the finest Presidents. We need another Reagan in the White House.
My name is Reagan, and I get the Raygun mispronunciation all the time...
My name is Raegan (spelled differently) and my middle name is Corinne.. I love my name :)
My wife loved Reagan for our daughter's birth in 2021. Me too - a unique name of gaelic origin.
I like this name and think it is unique. I actually don't even'think about American politics at all when I hear the name...rather I think of The Exorcist! Regardless, fad name or not (and I totally don't think that matters, as long as you love the name and your baby!) I think It's very unique!
I think this name is a beautiful yet strong name for a girl! For a boy I think it exhibits charI'ma and strenght.
For a girl would it be regan like ree can or Ray can❤️
my name is raegen..i havent met anyone who has spelled it the'same way as me...people often pronounce it REE-GAN, but its actually pronounced RAY-GEN...uhmm i never knew what it meant until just recentlyy..but i love my name...its unique and it fits me.. My full name is Raegen Samantha Updyke..and alot of people I'meet often'tell me they want to name there kids Raegen lol..
In Shapespeare's King Lear Reagan was the name of one of the King's daughters. She falsley professed her love for her father and then betrayed him, estentially condemning the old man to homelessness. She also ripped the beard off an eldery male servant. NOT the historical connotation I would look for when naming a child, especially when it comes from such a famous source (ie everyone taking high school lit will look at your kid and say, wow, will you do that to your dad❤️❤️)
Reagan- pronounced REE-gan, is our 8 month old daughter's name. We think the EA spelling gives it a long e pronuncation. However we get RAY-gun often due to president Ronald Reagan.
My little Reagan Caroline is about to turn 5 and everyday I am so glad we gave her a strong, but feminine name. It is EXACTLY the way she is.
Our daughter, Reagan Elizabeth, receives many commpliments on her name. Our daughter likes her name as it is not common and provides her with a unique and strong name.
My name is Reagan Elizabeth. I like my name being unique, then I don't have to share it with anyone else my age... except my friend who also happens to be named Reagan Elizabeth.
My name is Reagan and I love it! People compliment me on it all the time. And I have red hair which people love. I love being complimented by people I don't even know Reagan is an awesome name!!
We named our daughter Tabitha after the little girl in Bewitched. People always react when'told her name - all ages, young and old alike make the Bewitched connection!
My name is Reagan -- pronounced Ree-gan not Ray-gan. I am female was born in the mid-70s (before Ronald was president). I came to know a few other Reagans and Regans in my lifetime. i've always been fond of my name and the fact that It's distinctive. I don't think It's a fad name at all.
My name is Raegen. I love my name! People often spell my name wrong but big deal. My name is soo unique.
my name is Reagan and i absolutly love it. I am the only one in the whole school (6th 7th and 8th) with the name Reagan. The only reason i dont like my name is because people always spell it wrong like they spell it "Regan Ragan Ragen Regen Reagen Reagon Regon Ragon". But in all i love my name because it is unique and because all my grandparents named me Reagan. =D
It'started when I was taking a course, and the instructor refered to her daughter "Regan". I had to stop her, wait did you just say your daughters name is Regan❤️ I I'mediately fell in love with how strong but cool the name was! I went home and told my husband who is Pres Reagans's #1 fan. He of course found the name to be the most beautiful name for a girl. He thought it was a name that belonged to a girl who was smart. haha! We had a boy, but never forgot this name in case we have a girl one day, so unique and pretty. Definitely using this if we have a girl "Regan Elle"
my daughter is due in dec and i want to name her raygan anyone know what the meaning of the name is
We named our baby girl Talia Lillie, pronounced Tah-lee-yah, It's a beautiful name.:) We almost went with Natalia but I think this name is just as pretty as our daughter& suits her.
My name is Raegan,I love my name,but eveyone always spells my name Reagan but thats not how I spell it.Everyone says my name is pretty.
My hubby and I are having a baby girl this October and we are planning to name her Reagan Rose. I think It's a great name!
You should listen'to a song called "Valerie" by the Zutons...trust me
I plan to name my twin girls Reagan and Rylee. I would love to hear some suggestions for middle names.
My daughter is 18 months and she is named Reagan after President Ronald Reagan. We almost named her Reagan Elizabeth as well, but we decided on Emily. We call her Reags...
we my names samantha... i get sami, sam, and my brothere even calls me sam the ham.
If I have a baby girl, I plan on naming her Reagan Diane. I love the name Reagan It's pretty and Irish!
We have a 4 month-old daughter that we named Kaia Elizabeth. i've liked the name'since my childhood and have yet to personally meet another Kaia. I'm sure people will butcher the pronunciation and spelling throughout her life, but I think It's such a beautiful name!
My daughter was born in June 2021, and her name is Reagan Alexis. We've only met a handful of people, mostly other babies our daughter's age, that'share the name. Most people pronounce it Ree-gan I don't want "reagan" to become too popular, but maybe popular enough so that people will start pronouncing it right. I love my daughters name, I think It's strong, beautiful, and unique. And I hope she grows up to love it as much as her father and I do.
one of my best friends is named reagan and he is a boy. is that wierd❤️ whenever i say 'my friend reagan....' people always think i am talking about a girl. is there any other boys named reagan❤️❤️" My 2 yr old son is named Reagan (Reagan Michael)not named for the pres. We love the name. I think It'sounds like a boys name, but everyone assumes he is a girl going just by the name.
It is cruel to give this name to a precious little girl. It is definitely a masculine name. Great for a boy but down right ugly for a girl.
We named our little guy Zack. He is 3 months now and i love the name and him. He is our little dude, his daddy is a musician and i can picture our wee Zack in a band also. Cool name although often gets spelt wrong but so does his sisters Alesha. Love itx
We have 2 girls and 1 boy, Names are Lauren, Lilyen, and Brennen. I love the name Lila if we have another girl I'might use it along with 2 other (L) names I love. Lila sounds really good with my girls names. It's beautiful!
my baby is due in December and her name will be Reagan pearl Finck ... She will be named after the president . She has a sister named Kennedy Ava . So we will have Kennedy and Reagan :)
Sounds masculine and ALWAYS reminds me of Ronald. sorry!
My daughter born in 12/13 is named Reagan Avery, I never thought about her name being gender neutral. But I see from reading comments on her that it is. I certainly hope it does not cause her problems in the future. I absolutely love her name!
I am having a Baby girl in MAY her name is going to be Reagan Madison
It's a name i've always thought of as a boy's name. I think it began as a boy's name ("little king") but It'seems the trend is for girls to have boy names now. (eg. Camryn, Ryan, Morgan). Just my thoughts.
We named our 4 month old son Caden. We like that if you shorten'the name it would be Cade. It'sounds very masculine to us.
I have a daughter who is now 15 years old. I named her Reagan after a distant cousin who got the name from her mother's maiden name. Reagan's middle name is Elizabeth after my aunt Liz. After Reagan was born (in 2007) I found out my distant cousin's middle name was also Elizabeth. I did not realize how common this duo was! I love the name Reagan. My daughter has mixed emotions! She would like to be able to go to a store and see her name personalized on something like her brother can. (His name is Tyler)( I wanted Riley, but my husband didn't want a unisex name.) Anyway, I have never'seen'the Exorcist, and she is beautiful girl, just like her name. We have only met 2 other Reagan's. If someone is going to mispronounce it, it is always as Meagan or REE-Gan and she does hate that! She likes to be called Rae or Rae-Rae. I however, only call her Reagan.
We are due with our first child (n't sure if boy or girl) in June of 09. My hubby & I loved Aiden but It's too popular then we stumbled on Caiden & we were hooked. If we have a boy he'll be Caiden Oliver. My hubby's middle name is Oliver. Soooo cute!
My boyfriend's name is Reagan..i really like his name and i always pronounce it correct..sometimes i call him Reag in short!
I named my daughter Reagan McKenzie and love It'so much.
My names Reagan and i get called Reegen or Ragan. some tease me calling me Ragdoll but i correct them each time.
My wife and I are debating the Reagan name. Regan pops up as well and this name has a sordid past... evil daughter in King Lear and obsessed woman in poltergeist.... should we still go with Reagan❤️❤️ I grew up under his Presidency and respect him, but I dmostly want to make sure its a good baby girl name.
wasnt sure about name at first but now got a grandson called kai and he's gorgeous and really suits it
We have a daughter Raegan Elizabeth, born in 2011. Spelling with "ae" was purely based on thinking we might call her Rae, because Ray is my maiden name.
Just had a baby girl on February 9, 2020 and named her Reagan Allison. I see the comment on Jan. 8th that your little girl is named and spelled the'same! I absolutely love the name, my husband actually picked out her name. We both wanted a good Irish name but most Irish names are rather difficult to pronounce and spell. We both like that It's a unique but not unusual name.
I love this name, and am going to use it for my daughter when she is born in April
Are you people kidding❤️ Reagan for a girl❤️!!! Thanks for destroying the only name I like for a boy! I hate you!!!
I am having a little girl in May 2020. I love the name, but I don't like the'spelling. We are spelling it more the way It'should be pronounced. RAEGEN. This way no one will call her (REE-GEN) I am just hoping itI am having a little girl in May 2020. I love the name, but I don't like the'spelling. We are spelling it more the way It'should be pronounced. RAEGEN. This way no one will call her (REE-GEN) I am just hoping it does not become too popular.does not become to popular.
My daughter Ler'sa is expecting a baby girl in Jan. We are so excited as this will be our first grandchild. Her name will be "Reagan Adeline" which I feel has a wonderful new-old fashioned mix to it. I love it!!
I LOVE THE NAME REAGAN & IM 6MTHS PREGNANT WITH MY 3RD CHILD WHICH IS A GIRL & HER NAME WILL BE REAGAN..I HAVE MY OLDEST CHILD(SON) WHO'S NAME IS KENNEDY, MY 2ND CHILD(DAUGHTER) NAME IS MADISYN & ALL MY CHILDREN OR NAMED AFTER PRESIDENT'S & THATS HOW I WANTED IT TO BE...Src
I have a Reagan Mackenzie born 11-98. We have only met 1 other Reagan before since we named her. I have never had anyone call her Ree-gan as a pronunciation. She also was not named after the President. We had decided on Riley, when it hit us how many kids had that name already so I went looking for something else. Baby Reagan it was. I love it and can't imagine her having any other name!
Wow, very popular in the 1992's, huh❤️ No wonder I wound up with it! Aaaah, I love the 'ie' ending as opposed to the 'y' because 'y' is usually masculine while 'ie' is usually feminine. No one has ever asked if it was short of Katherine...and I absolutely HATE when a person named Katherine insists on being called Katie. D: So, I know of no other Katies...just one Katherine calling he'self Katie...grrr. Maybe I *should* make people call me Katherine, then❤️ :<
I had a little girl in May and we named her Reagan Elizabeth. I agree with the previous posts I beli've it is a very strong feminine name. We also love president Reagan as well, but I just fell in love with the name and the'stren'th that it brings!!
My daughter named her baby Reagan and I hate it. No one in the family likes the name. We should have spoken up but didn't want to hurt her feelings. Though she is a beautiful little girl I see the president's face and Linda Blair's character in the Exorcist. It's a harsh name and the nicknames are horrible. Raygee...ugh. I call her Livy, for her middle name Olivia.
my name is raegan (ray-gun)lucy clancy jones and im 14 and love having such a different name that represnt both stren'th an beauty :) i have only ever had compliments on it and people who know me cant see me being named anything else :) im named after king lears daughter :)
I felt that it was difficult to grow up with an unusual name. I was born in 1975. The name Reagan for a girl was very unusual. I was pretty shy, and my unusual name always called attention to myself. Now I like my name and I think that It's pretty cool to have a unique name.
I am pregnant and if its a girl i want to name her Reagan. I just love this name. Do you think I can nane it Reagan if its a boy❤️ have you ever heard of any boys called Reagan❤️
My neice's name is Raygann... same name different spelling. Raygann Emery..so I'may be a little partial but I think it is a BEAUTIFUL name!
I love the name reagan. Its what i want to name my future daughter:)
We have a daughter we named Dahlia, but I had no idea it wasn't common until I saw this graph here. The first plant I bought for my wife was a Dahlia, which is why I used the name.
My daughter was born 12/3/10 and is named Reagan Simone. My wife and I both have great respect for the late President and loved the name even without that fact. We have already gotten a few Ree-gan pronunciations from people (still don't really understand why) but I love the name regardless and would not have her called anything else.
This is our 6 year old daughters name. We found a meaning "God Heard Us" and it was perfect after years of waiting for her.
I named one of my daughters Reagan. We did name her after Ronald and we love the name!!!
My name is Raigan Erin (spelled differently because my Mom thought it was more f eminine). I was born in 1989 during the Ronald Reagan era and the movie The Exorcist. I was teased A LOT growing up, but many people over the years have commented that it is a lovely name. I have learned to appreciate the name.
I am due with a little girl in June and we are naming her Reagan Elizabeth... we get so many compliments on it and people tell us that it is a strong, elegant name. Hopefully she likes it!
I tend to go through names pretty fast. But my babies coming up in less than 2 weeks! Me and my husband agree 100% on Reagan being her first name, and Morgan being her middle. :)
I am pregnant and due in October 2020-my husband and I both have "unisex" names ourselves, so we REALLY wanted an unusual unisex name for our baby girl-after debate over EVERY name we chose I thought of Raegan Justina and we havent debated or thought of another name'since-It'stuck!!! We call my baby bump baby Raegan!
My daughter's name is Reagan Catharyn and her twin brother is Remington I love the name I also named her after the 40th President.
My first grand child will be born in the next few weeks and her name will be Reagan Elizabeth. We adore President Reagan, but the name was also selected because they loved the'sound of it.
My name is Reagan Elizabeth and I think my parents picked it because my grandpa's name is Ray. I'm the only person in my school with that name!
My daughter is Reagan Elisabeth. I was hesitant because it is different but I love her name.
Hey I have a two year old daughter name Rylee and her middle name is Paige.. I think Rylee Paige sounds real good together. I am due in December and thinking about naming my daughter Raegan Jade
My name is Regan & I love it!! Its SOOO unique and lots of people say 'What a pretty name!' I kinda think its funny that the character in the exorcist is named Regan. I like how I am named after a Shakespear play-It's kind of fun to talk about!! I love my name! Some people do mis-prounounce it but BIG DEAL!
I have always loved the name Reagan for a girl. I saw It'somewhere one day and knew that if I had a daughter that I would name her that. My husband and I named her Reagan Elizabeth and we could not imagine as anyone else. She was born 4-23-08.
My daughter was born 11-29-10 and we named her Reagan Elise. I love her name. For the most part, everyone pronounces it correctly. I'm so glad we chose this name. Our other daughter is Makayla Alene.
Our daughter was born in 2021. We named her Reagan Elizabeth. I didn't know that combo was so popular. My wife loved the name (she came up with it) I agreed because I liked the president and my mothe's side are all Elizabeths.
the name rebecca is ok I'mean i like it but i would a better name but a am glad it is my name! the one thing i hate is when people mix my full name (rebecca) with my nickname (becky)so they call me rebecky i hate when'they do that!
Wow!! I feel special since i think im the only Candiı. Yes my i have an accent on the "S" which make me unique. and i love it. im glad my mom decided to name me Candiı instead on shawntia.
We named our baby girl, born in March this year, Keira Helen and we really love the name. People tdo battle to spell or pronounce it, but it is still beautiful and unique in South Africa, where we live.
We named our daughter Reagan Skylar in Jan. 01. I like different names. My oldest daughter born Oct. 96 is named Mackenzie which at the time was a name you rarely heard. Now you here it all the time. So I'm wondering if Reagan's name will grow to be as popular in a few years from now. Everyone always comments on how they like her name and how pretty it is.
Our 3 year old daughter's name is Reagan Marie. Pronounced REE-gan. It is a strong feminine name that'suits her perfectly.
My name is Reagan. I was born in 1987 so I started school the year Ronald Reagan was elected. I was made fun of a lot and always hated my name when I was younger. There's still an old teacher of mine from middle school who calls me "Reaganomics." As i've gotten older though I have learned to like my name more. I get a lot of comments on how pretty the name is. I have met many Reagan's throughout the years with many different spellings. All of them were female. I suppose girls who are named Reagan now will never be made fun of like I was in school because of my name.
We named our son this name, but spelled it Kehlen after my maiden name (Kehler) in honour of my family maiden name. We love the name and have had many people comment positively on it.
my name is Raegen and i dont really like it because everyone spells and pronounces it wrong. i wasnt named after the pres. and most people think i was but i guess i dont have a bad name just a complicated one!
My daughters name is Regan Lynn. I have only met a handful of people with this name. She also gets called Ree gan, and she is quick to correct them.
My little girl Reagan [Ray-Gen] is 12 she is very non-feminine but very strong she has brown curly hair and she is adorable.
I think its a stong and beautiful name. Im considering Reagan Victoria if we have a girl
I have a 4 year old girl named Reagan and we meet other Reagans ALL the time especially at Disneyland
Yamileth is my middle name and I gave it to my daughter as a first name. When I was going to give it to my daughter I search the meaning of it and I found out that it is of Arabic descent and it means beautiful. I am Hispanic and so we pronounce it as Ja-mi-let.
I named my daughter Reagan, after our 40th President.
I'm still a student, but I would like to name my future daughter, Reagan!
Yes they do I hate it they NEVER hear the T and some times they say wezley It's soooo annoying at the time of writing this I'm 10
omg its the name of the girl off of excorsisttttt lol
My 21 month old daughter's name is Sophia Reagan. Love what we chose for her. I get a lot of compliments on her name.
This is my son's name... Many people definitely pronounce it X ander and do spell it with a Z I only met one other child with this name and it is spelled with a Z. I personally love the uniqueness of this name and just happen'to be an old hippie but I'm not sure what that has to do with it...
I love the name Reagan. I don't think it is a fad name, as I went to school with 2 Reagans in the early 70's. My 6 year old daughter is named Reagan and we have yet to meet another little girl with the'same name. I have liked the name for at least 20 years. It is a strong, easily pronounced, and somewhat unusual name.
we are of Indian origin ( India). We love the name aiden. It'sounds beautiful with my husband's last name. Aiden Chandler Dakshina. He is going places with that name.
My name is Reagan and I LOVE it! (I'm a girl) I only know two other Reagans that are around my age. We all go to different schools. I'm 17 and they are like 14 and 15. I guess there are a lot of little Reagans running around now. My name couldn't be more perfect.
My friend has a girl named Reagan. I don't think of a president when I see her, I think of it as a new twist on Meagan.
We are naming our baby girl this in January when she arrives. Some people really like the name, othe's like my Grandmother thought I'made it up. I recently heard a character in a movie named Hadley. I think it is feminine without being too trendy.
do some research, the name reagan is not a new name. I'might be a "fad" due to it recently becoming popular. PS: Do not name your son reagan, it is a girls name
my name is reagan(ray-gin)elaine and i found that people cant pronounce it or spell it right sometimes and ive been put on the boys names list in school before but i love my name
I love it! We named one of our twin girls Reagan and it was partly inspired by the Gipper. I kept saying that'she looked like Ronald Reagan as a newborn and on the 3rd day after just calling her Reagan as a nickname we decided that it worked and we officially named her Reagan. :D
We are having our son in July. His name will be Easton. I'm a school teacher and I run out of names really quick. This is an unusual name. We have Easton Grant picked out.
We named our daughter, Anneliese. She is two now. We pronounce it "Ahna-Lisa" or "Ahna-leeza." Lots of people say 'Ana-lees' just so you are prepared for lots of mispronunciations. We like the meaning though - "God's blessing" We have also ran into several other little girls with the'same name'so It'seems to be getting more popular.
I think this name is gaining popularity! I named my daughter Reagan because its Irish, like my name, and, to me, It'sounds strong. Although I have yet to meet another Reagan, I hear often from people who know of someone who is named or named their child Reagan. I think It's positively beautiful!
I felt that it was difficult to grow up with an unusual name. I was born in 1975. The name Reagan for a girl was very unusual. I was pretty shy, and my unusual name always called attention to myself. Now I like my name and I think that It's cool to have a unique name.
My name is Reagen, and It's difficult because I'm the only person that'spells it like that, so it always autocorrects to "Reagan"
My daugther is 5 months old,her name is Reagan Camil Mildred.I love her name and I hope she will too.
My name is Reagan Elizabeth, and I love it! It's a unique name for a 13 year old, and even for older or younger people. Although a lot of people make jokes about Ronald Reagan, I couldn't see myself with any other name!
were expecting march 12 2021 we love sadie jaye.... thats cute
We are going to name our son Xander. We LOVE the name despite some strange comments from family and friends. You can't make everyone happy!
My name is Reagan. As a child growing up I didn't like it because I was the only one. Now, I'm used to it because of the countless Ronald Reagan comments. I don't care if he was a great president or not, I just don't want that to be the first thing to come out of peoples' mouths! I also don't like when people call me Ree-gan. It's Ray, like a ray of light! I hope as time goes on this name becomes more popular. Even'though I am an adult, and comfortable with myself, I still wish for a name that is more normal! And yes, Reagan can be for both boys and girls... i've met a few of both in my life. Keep naming your babies Reagan so the rest of us Reagans have company!! Great post!!
WONDERFUL Post.thanks for share..extra wait .. ❤️There are certainly a whole lot of purticalars like that to take into consideration. That may be a nice level to convey up. I supply the thoughts above as normal inspiration however clearly there are questions like the one you carry up where a very powerful thing will likely be working in trustworthy good faith. I don't know if greatest practices have emerged around things like that, but I'm sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Each girls and boys feel the impression of just a moment pleasure, for the remainder of their lives.
Our 2.5 year old daughter was born on Feb. 19, 2019. He had picked both a boy's name and a girl's name, as we did not find out what we were having. My wife is a naturalized US citizen who shares the late president's birthday. We are both independent-minded (read stubborn) conservatives who love the 40th president of the United States. We joked with everyone that if we had a boy or girl it did not matter as they would have been named after great men. Our would-be son would have been named after his great-grandfather. However, if you haven't guessed yet or looked up Feb. 19, 2019, it just happened to be President's Day that year, so it was very fitting that we had a girl. She too is an independent-minded young lady with a personality that the late president would have enjoyed. We have our out-going, little actress, Reagan Delaney. I am withholding our last name.
People usually call me Rachel on accident. Or the pronounce it Ree-gen. I only know one other person named Reagan. I think the correct way to say it is Rae-gan.
I love the name. My husband and I are trying to get pregnant and this is one of the names that we both like! =) Sounds like a pretty and confident name to us. We also love Ronald Reagan, so we don't mind if it reminds people of the former president. We would pronounce it like his name anyway.
I named my baby girl Reagan. For a long time, she was supposed to be Ava, but it became a top 5 name in the U.S. and we wanted to be a little more original. THough, I still love the name Reagan, I can't get over not naming her Ava. THe comments on this site made me feel better about her name. I hope she will like the uniqueness of her name. SHe is a beautiful baby, and I think the name Reagan suits her well.
My daughter is also Regan Elizabeth. People always comment on how much they love the name!
I am thinking about naming my daughter Regan. I absolutely loathe the president, but my son's name is Zephyr after the beach Zephyr Cove where my husband and I grew up in Lake Tahoe and Regan is the beach in Tahoe where I got married. There is also a memorial bench for my husband's mother and grandmother at Regan beach. Middle names I'm considering are: Regan Ashlin Regan McKenzie Regan Rose Regan Taylor Regan Adora Regan Breann Regan Olivia
My husband and I are expecting a baby girl in June and her name is going to be Raegan Marie. He didn't like it at first, but the more I say it, the more It's growing on him! I don't know anyone with the name, but I love it!
After what we've read about male names, we're going for Reagan as the name for our next baby. We want a name that is unique for our son.
I prefer the name for a boy. It'sounds more strong and masculine than soft and feminine. didn't it begin as a boy's name❤️
I just named my little girl Reagan after the President and the name and its namesake embody all the things I hope for her. Here's to all the Reagans of the world!
Hey my name is Reagan. I love the name its great,but i get called megan and megan with an R.My nick names are Ray,Ray Ray,and Rasin. P.S. I'm 11 years old! :-)
I am due in October and if we have a girl we want to name her Reagan Marie. I love the name and I also loved the President so I think it is perfect. :)
I am expecting in December 2020, and if the baby is a girl, her name will be Reagan. Her middle name will be either Allison (my middle name) or Amelia, after my grandmother Milly. I love it.
I am getting a golden retri'ver puppy in July and she will be named Reagan! In honor of one of the'smartest men of our time! We do need another Reagan in the White House, sooner rather than later! I also love the name because it is Irish and means nobility or royalty!
We named our daughter Reagan. I like the name a lot. While we are political, we did not name her after the former president.
My first daughter is Rylee Jane and our next daughter, due Feb. 2018, will be Reagan Lynn :)) Love both of the names!
It is a fad name. One cannot even find it before 2006. While it is currently number 89 for girl's names, my nephew named his son Reagan a couple of years ago. My son now proposes to name his daughter Reagan. I think it is nice when a name at least indicates gender.
My name is Reagan, middle name Michelle. My parents named me after the president. My brothe's and sister are all named after presidents. I think my name'suits me well. Many people pronouce it Ree-gan but its ray- gun
I was born Ragan in 1986. It never gets spelled correctly, of course, but that didn't bother me as much as being called Ronald when I was a kid. I tell people now that my parents weren't big spellers. The truth is my sister, who named me, thinks the letter "e" is masculine. As a little girl, I would've given anything to be Heather or Jennifer or one of those other names that came printed on pencils or barrettes. As an adult, I relish having a moniker that'stands out. I also realize that there are far worse things than being called Ronald - like wearing hairbows with your name on them.
I had the cutest little girl in my class named Reagan... usually teache's have a difficult time with names because of associations... but this is at the top of my list!
I don't like it. It doesn't sound girly to me at all.
not true at all that the name was never used before 2006. i went to high school with a girl named reagan and she was two years ahead of me, so today she would be about 26 years old. love the name for botha boy or a girl...i think i like it better for a girl's name though
Reagan is a irish name that is unisex which means little ruler. Not too shabby since we could of named our daughter coco or apple. We wanted to give our child a power name. So in defense, if your looking to follow the crowd with a fad name then'this is not the name to chose
I Love this name..I picked it out for my first born grandaughter...Yes another Reagan Elizabeth (Little Ruler) and a queen of sorts!
I am pregnant and will use this name for a girl b/c I love it. I am considering using it for a boy as well.
everyone who names their child this, is setting it up for an exorcI'm! lol......
My name is Reagan, and I was born in 1993. I was not named after the president, but rather after a friend of the family, and for It's celtic meaning or "regal". I disagree with the last post saying that It's a fad, and is not found before 2006.... I'm proof. There was also another Reagan that I'met who was born in 1987....
I am a mother of a 1 YO named Reagan (Ray-gun) and also call her Ray, Ray Ray, or Reggie! Funny thing, Mr. Conservative, my 3 YO is named Delaney!
My name is Raegan and my middle name is 'Ann'. I love it whan people tell me how pretty and unique my name is. Raegan, UK.
We are having a son this summer and are going to name him Walker Collins. Collins is a family name. We love the name and our friends and family do too!
My name is Reagan, and I absolutely love it. I always have people telling me they love my name and they want to name their child Reagan. I love the unique-ness it offers without being strange and hard to pronounce! :)
My wife and I just had twin girls named Reagan Elizabeth and Madison Danielle...both named after presidents.
My daughter's name is Reagan Larae. I knew when I was 11 if i ever had a daughter I'd name her Reagan. Some people do call her REEGAN at first or MEGAN. We've met 12 Reagans in 8 years, some girls and some boys. She now has a brother and his name is Grant. I love strong last names as first names that also can't really be nicknamed like Christopher(Chris)
It'started out as a joke to my democratic inlaws but nothing we came up with worked, even my husband said he was happy with Reagan so we have Reagan Aeryn and it fits her perfectly! She is a strong and sweet little girl with a great sense of humor! It is unique without being ridiculous...
i love this name!! when i have a child..if its a girl i will call her raygen << (i would spell it like this too) reagan looks like its pronounced ree-gan even'though its not.
