Real in Real Madrid means "Royal." Given the crown in their logo - I would say the same applies to the MLS team as well...

real means royal in spanish so it makes sense for it to be Real Madrid, but I think Real Salt Lake is just a joke.

Real as in "Real Madrid" means Royal
Real as in "Real Salt Lake" is just used because it's what european teams do. (just like DC United - Manchester United)
