This paper studies the vocabulary to designate a governor in Jordanes' De summa temporum uel de origine actibusque gentis Romanorum and De rebus Geticis and in Gregorius of Tours' Historia Francorum. Firstly, the terms augustus, augusta, caesar e imperator are analised; then princeps, that refers both to the Roman one and to that of other people; next, rex, regina, which keep being the terms to name Roman kings and, besides, designate the leader of other people. This same value, but restricted to monarches of smaller states, has less frequent terms in the Clasical age, such as regnator and regulus, and later ones such as subregulus and regalis. Some of these terms ended up dissapearing, but many of them have survived in modern languages.
