Does anyone know of any name with the nickname Reggie, besides Regina or Reginald?

I think Reggie is cute, but I dislike both of those names.

I've heard of the name Regan, like in King Lear and such--Reggie could potentially be a nickname for that?

At a stretch - Irene?

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

You know, I think I've actually heard that somewhere and I remember being kinda confused by it, haha. But then again, a nickname doesn't necessarily have to make total sense with every letter in the name.

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

I suppose that could work, although I like the name Regan enough that I'd probably just stick with that, haha

[musiclily88.livejournal.com]

It is pretty cute, isn't it? :)
You could also do a basic noun, like Regent or something--probably would work better for a boy, but not necessarily!

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it looks like it works better for guy names. Cute, indeed! :)

My daughter's name is Reagan, a lot of times we call her Reaggy. Different than Reggie, but still similar. :

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

That's cute! :)

My daughter's mn is Reagan. It only comes out when she's in trouble, though. ;)

Cute :D

After some searching, and stretching it a bit...

Georgia/Georgina
Bridget

Gregory
George

Ooh, I like that for Gregory and Georgia! Thanks :)

You should watch the show Dead Like Me! The main character is named George, short for Georgia, and her sister is named Reggie (we never hear what it's short for).

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

That is SOO cute!! George for a girl's nickname, loooove it! :D I will watch :)

That's the way it is in the Nancy Drew books for her friend George Fayne... Short for Georgia (although that may just be for certain authors, I don't remember)

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

I don't think I ever read Nancy Drew...disgraceful, right? Haha

I know a woman named just "Reggie" but it's pronounced "reg(like 'regular')-ee".

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I like Reggie with a J sound, better.

[laminy.livejournal.com]

I wrote a story once where the main character's name was Georgina, and I called her Reggie.

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

I like that :)

(Not a srs suggestion, was recently watching an old HIMYM episode and I think that's where in the dark recesses of my mind it came from) but, Regis? (yea as in Philbin)

Sorry... You had already gotten a lot of great REAL answers- I didn't have any good ones to add so, that's what I've got for you :-)

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

Haha Regis, that's right! Thanks for your input :)

Reggae (I hate it but just throwing it out there; I think I saw it from this comm somewhere)
Regulus (Harry Potter name, also a star in the Leo constellation!)

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

Regulus!!! :D I'd never use it in real life, but the HP nerd in me loves it!!

My history professor's first name was Regiton. Not sure if that helps, though.
