The surname Regina has a fascinating history, particularly within Irish descent. The name Regina is of Latin origin, derived from the word regina, meaning queen. It is believed that the name was introduced to Ireland during the medieval period when Latin was the language of the Church and education.
In Ireland, the surname Regina is most commonly associated with families of Norman descent who arrived during the Anglo-Norman invasion in the 12th century. These Norman settlers intermarried with the native Irish population, leading to the adoption of Gaelic traditions and customs. Over time, the name Regina became anglicized, with variations such as Regan, Reagan, and O'Regan.
The surname Regina is also associated with the O'Regan sept, a prominent Irish clan originating in County Limerick. The O'Regans were known for their involvement in politics and military affairs, and the name Regina is believed to be an anglicized form of O'Riagáin, which means descendant of Riagán, a personal name derived from ri, meaning king or queen.
Today, individuals with the surname Regina, particularly of Irish descent, can be found worldwide. Many have traced their roots back to Ireland, where their ancestors played significant roles in shaping the country's history and culture.
