But again, how do you know that's not true? I'm not being flip. I'm genuinely curious to know why every other site out there is discounted in its meaning when all of them have the same meaning listed? I could see if there were 25 different meanings or something, but all the other sites agree. How do we know they're all wrong?

I think it may be because all the other sites copied their information from an incorrect source in the first place.
BtN says "possibly of Celtic Origin". Are there any words similar to Regan in any of the Celtic languages, or words that could construct Regan? Secondly, is there any usage before King Lear?

I haven't found any usage prior to King Lear, but I don't know how to research that specifically. Don't know of any other words similar to Regan in Celtic languages.
