How and when did this become an actual name?

I know of a little boy called Reyn. Awful name.

Isn't one of Stella McCartney DCs called this?

Def other celeb with this dc name.

With that spelling, I'm not aware that it had been used for a name.

But the registrars aren't allowed to say anything when people turn up to register their dc.

I know a Regina. That might work if you're looking for something regal?

Perhaps it's a Royalists name. Like Jermajesty . Son of Jermaine Jackson.

I haven't seen it spelt as 'Reign' in the UK. Raine, as pp said, is a longstanding name and I've come across 'Rain' used in the same vein as, say 'Summer' as an earthy, hippie sort of name.

It's usually spelled Raine - been around for yonks (eg Princess Di's stepmother)
