Regina Engstrand is the maid (and it emerges lovechild of Captain Alving) in Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen's 'Ghosts' (1881). When I saw this performed was the first time I'd heard it pronounced with a hard g, and I absolutely loved that pronunciation. I'm not as keen on the soft g pronunciation, but I do love Regina Spektor, so she helps my impression of it!

Regina Redlich is the young girl in the Academy Award-winning 2001 German film 'Nowhere in Africa,' which was based on Stefanie's Zweig's memoirs of her family escaping to Kenya in the late Thirties.

In the movie Mean Girls, I think they meant this name to be ironic or coincidental, as Regina is considered the "Queen Bee" of the plastics and the name means queen.
