Raine Meaning

Possibly based on the French word reine meaning "queen". A famous bearer is the British socialite Raine Spencer (1929-), the stepmother of Princess Diana. In modern times it can also be used as a variant of Rain or a short form of Lorraine. Raine is a diminutive of Lorraine. Lorraine originates in French language and means "woman from Lorraine". Lorraine is a region in northern France. In the English-speaking countries it has been used since the 19th century and was once fairly popular in the United States. Lately its usage has declined.
