📖 Über Reina
Reina ist das spanische Wort für 'Königin' (aus dem Lateinischen regina), das sowohl als lebendiges Substantiv als auch als Vorname verwendet wird — was ihm eine Unmittelbarkeit verleiht, die kein rein ausländischer Königsname besitzt; 'mi reina' (meine Königin) ist eine der geläufigsten spanischen Kosewortformen; der Name wird auch durch den marianischen Titel Reina del Cielo (Königin des Himmels) bereichert und in Japan unabhängig (mit Kanji geschrieben) von Sängerin Tanaka Reina von Morning Musume verwendet.
