Reis
Reis is the Portuguese word for kings. It may mean a number of different things:Surname Reis is a common surname in the Portuguese language, namely in Portugal and Brazil. It was originally a  Christian devotional family name of the Middle Ages, probably due to the Portuguese name for the Biblical Magi, the Reis Magos (the Magi Kings). Sometimes the surname is dos Reis (of the Kings). The Reis surname does not denote a single genealogical origin and there are many different families bearing that surname. The Reis etymology is probably from the Latin Rex ("King"), and it is noticeable that it has relations with the German Reich ("Kingdom, Empire"), and the Dutch Rijk(also "Kingdom, Empire"), the Germanic names RickRichRichard, etc.
