Terregles () is a village and civil parish near Dumfries, in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. It lies in the former county of Kirkcudbrightshire.
The name Terregles, recorded as Travereglis in 1359, is from Cumbric *trev-ïr-eglẹ:s. *Trev refers to a settlement and *eglẹ:s is a borrowing of Latin ecclesia, 'church building'. (Modern Welsh Tref yr Eglwys/ Tref Eglwys). James argues that the name dates to no earlier than the 10th century.
