Name Meaning
From the Latin vocabulary word meaning ‘queen’. It was occasionally used as a given name among the early Christians; a St Regina , probably of the 3rd century, was venerated as a virgin martyr at Autun from an early date. In modern use it is normally borne by Roman Catholics in allusion to the epithet Regina Coeli ‘Queen of Heaven’, a cult title of the Virgin Mary since the 8th century.
