Reane

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Welsh

Meaning: Great queen

Reane is a variant of the Welsh girl’s name Rhiannon, meaning “great queen.” Rhiannon is believed to derive from the Romano-British name Rigantona, which belonged to a goddess possibly associated with horses. The name later evolved into Rhiannon, who was a figure in the ancient Welsh story collection, the Mabinogion. An Otherworld woman, she had a strong-willed personality and was known for her beauty, wealth and generosity. You may also associate the name with the iconic Fleetwood Mac song Rhiannon. Reane is a less common variant of this beautiful name, making it a good option if you want baby to stand out from the crowd.
