Régnier, Henri de, 1864-1936, French poet, one of the young symbolists of the circle of Mallarmé. His early Poèmes anciens et romanesques (1891) showed skill in free verse, but his style soon changed to follow classical models, chiefly through the influence of José Maria de Heredia, father of Régnier's wife, Marie Louise de Heredia de Régnier, herself a poet. The poetic volume La Sandale ailée (1906; tr. Poems from the Wingèd Sandal, 1933) represents Régnier's classical style. Régnier also wrote successful novels that reflected his interest in history.

Régnier, Mathurin, 1573-1613, French poet. He wrote 16 vigorous, realistic, and often licentious verse satires in the manner of Latin authors, first published as a whole in 1613.

Roche-en-Régnier is a village and commune in the Haute-Loire département of southern-central France.
