In summary

From French royal, from Latin regalis. Occasionally attested in the 19th century and perhaps earlier. More regular use dates from the latter half of the 20th century, reinforced by English royal; compare die Royals (“the British royal family”). The derivatives Royalist, Royalismus are older in German.
