Royale

Royale is an adjective of French origin meaning royal. In English usage, royale is often preserved in proper names and branding to evoke luxury, prestige, or official status. The feminine form royale is used in French to modify feminine nouns, and English loanwords retain the capitalization when part of a proper noun.

In branding and nomenclature, Royale appears in hotels, restaurants, consumer products, ships, and events. It is chosen to suggest high quality or aristocratic associations. When used in this way, it is typically capitalized as part of a brand name.

In popular culture, Royale is used in titles and descriptors to convey grandeur. In modern gaming and media, the word is widely associated with battle royale formats—a multiplayer mode in which many players compete until one remains—reflecting a sense of grand, last-player-standing competition.

The term is related to the English word royal and to the French royale, and it may appear in a variety of uses across branding, entertainment, and discourse without constituting a single, standalone subject.
