Hello Eduardo,
though Reginald is actually more common in the UK (see below), Saint Reginald, a fellow of Saint Boniface and others who 
died 5. June 754 as martyrs near Dokkum, Frisia [actually Netherlands].

Alternatively, there was a Saint Reginald of Orleans who died 1 Feb. 1220 in Paris.

And finally, Reginald HEBER, anglican bishop of Calcutta and author of various common hymns, died in 1826.
