English: habitational name from Rayne (Essex), recorded in the Domesday Book as Raines in the 11th century. The etymology of the placename is uncertain, but it may derive from Old English hrægene ‘hut, shelter’ or from a pre-English river name for Pods Brook (a river on which Rayne lies), cognate with the German river name Regen (a tributary of the Danube), formed from the Indo-European root reg- ‘wet, moisten, water’.
