It means king. If you've ever watched " Live with Regis and Kelly", Regis Philbin often makes reference to his name as meaning "king". My Latin declension of nouns is escaping me now, but Rex is the nominative, and I think regis is the generative of rex.

Rex is Latin for King.
E.g., tyrannosaurus rex is "tyrant lizard king".
