Remco

Remco is a masculine given name of Dutch origin, commonly used in the Netherlands and Belgium. In Dutch-speaking communities it is often treated as a standalone name rather than a diminutive. The name appears in various domains, including sports, arts, and business, and is borne by several individuals in those fields. One widely known contemporary bearer is Remco Evenepoel, a Belgian professional cyclist born in 2000 who won the 2022 UCI Road World Championships road race.

Remco may also refer to a historical American toy company, Remco Toys (officially Remco Products, Inc.), that operated in the mid- to late 20th century. The firm produced a broad range of action figures, dolls, playsets, and novelty toys, including licensed properties, for a mass-market audience. The Remco brand faded from the market as the toy industry evolved and corporate reorganizations reshaped the landscape.

In addition to people and business names, Remco appears as a proper name in local contexts within Dutch- and Belgian-speaking regions and continues to be used as a given name by new generations in those communities. Overall, Remco functions as both a personal name and a brand designation with historical significance in the toy industry.
