'Regis' in Latin has two possible meanings:

It's the genitive singular of the word 'rex', which means 'king'. Genitive case in Latin used for possessive, so it translates as 'king's', or 'of the king'.

It is also the second person, singular of the verb 'rego, regere', and this translates as 'you rule'.

To the words derived listed above, I would add:

Regency, Regiment, Regnant, and Interregnum.
