Origin and meaning

counsel power or ruler's advisor (Germanic)

Reynald derives from the Germanic name Raginwald, composed of elements meaning 'advice/counsel' and 'rule'. In the Philippines, names of this root entered initially through Spanish (as Reynaldo) during the colonial period and later evolved into English forms like Reynald and Reynold during the American period and modern era.

Reynald is a variant of the Germanic name Reginald/Reynold (via Old French and English), meaning 'counsel-rule'. In the Philippines, it frequently functions as an Anglicized or modernized variant of the classic Spanish Reynaldo.
