Rohanlal is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Rohanlal is a North Indian compound given name formed from Rohan and Lal. Rohan derives from Sanskrit rohana, “rising, growing, ascending,” from the verbal root ruh “to rise, flourish,” and is widely used across modern Indo‑Aryan languages. Lal (Hindi/Urdu lāl) denotes “beloved, dear,” and by extension “son” or “ruby,” also functioning as an affectionate honorific appended to male names.

The compound thus conveys a sense of “beloved who rises” or “ever‑growing dear one.” It appears in Hindi-speaking regions from the late 19th century onward and in diaspora communities; a notable bearer is Indian parliamentarian Rohanlal Chaturvedi (1902–1991). Variants and spellings include Rohan Lal (two words), Rohan‑Lal, and regional scripts: रोहनलाल (Hindi), روہن لال (Urdu), রোহনলাল (Bengali), રોહનલાલ (Gujarati). Common short forms are Rohan and Lal; related compounds include names ending in ‑lal across North India.
