Don't do it, it doesn't make any sense :P Are you trying to get ray-gan by using the French pronunciation? That wouldn't work at all. The French é isn't pronounced like an AY.

You know, I'm French/German and whenever I try to explain the pronunciation of a French name that has an é in it, like Aimée, I use the AY sound to explain it as well (em-MAY) but that's actually incorrect. You know, the English AY is what comes closest to the French é but still it doesn't sound the same at all. The French é sounds more like a very long EH so you wouldn't get the pronunciation you wanted. Plus in French the -gan part would be pronounced differently as well.

I would just use Regan. Most people will pronounce it ray-gan anyway, from my experience.
