Gregs

Gregs is most commonly the plural form of the given name Greg, used when referring to multiple people named Greg. It can also appear as a rare surname in some genealogical contexts, though it is not widely used as a surname.

The given name Greg is a shortened form of Gregory, which comes from the Latin Gregorius and the Greek Gregorios, meaning vigilant or watchful. The name Gregory has been common in Christian contexts due to Saint Gregory the Great. Diminutives and related forms include Greg, Gregg, and Greggory (less common).

In English-language usage, Gregs is not widely used except when listing or referring to a group of individuals with the given name; it is typically used in plural contexts like “the Gregs from the software company” rather than as a standalone proper noun. In popular culture and media, individuals are usually referred to by their full name or by the singular nickname Greg rather than the plural Gregs. The term should not be confused with similar-sounding names such as Greggs, a distinct bakery chain in the United Kingdom.
