How to Pronounce Reganne
Pronounced REE-gan /ˈriːɡæn/Medium
Meaning: Reganne is a modern feminine spelling of Regan, adding an -ne ending. Regan is an Irish surname from Ó Riagáin, usually connected to 'ri', 'king', giving a sense of 'little king' or 'the king's descendant'; some link it to a word for 'impulsive'. Shakespeare used Regan for a daughter of King Lear. Reganne keeps that ancestry with a softer, feminine finish.Low

History & Origin
Reganne is a feminine elaboration of Regan, an Irish surname from Ó Riagáin tied to 'ri', king. The name also carries a literary echo through the Regan of Shakespeare's King Lear. As Regan and Reagan became fashionable girls' names, the -anne ending on Reganne gave it a gentler, distinctly feminine look.
It was never common, reaching only a couple dozen girls a year at its high near 1999 before fading. A girl given it then is now in her twenties. Reagan remains popular, but this -anne spelling reads as a lightly-used variant rather than a lasting form.
