Rebais (pronounced as /fr/) is a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region in north-central France.
Rebais has historically been attested in Latin as Rebascis in 635/636 and Rebascum in 1214. The toponym Rebais is of Germanic origin, deriving from a High German dialect, ultimately from Proto-West-Germanic
. The Germanic hydronym
entered the French language via High German, and took on two forms: the Germanic form -bach and Romantic -bais.[2]
The inhabitants are called Resbaciens in French.
