Rollan is Germanic in Origin.
Rollan is a modern English variant of Roland/Rowland, stemming from Old High German Hruodland (hruod ‘fame, renown’ + land ‘land, territory’), hence “renowned in the land.” The name traveled to England with the Normans and flourished in medieval Europe under the spell of La Chanson de Roland, whose heroic paladin of Charlemagne fixed Roland as a model of bravery and loyalty. English records favor Rowland from the 12th century, with periodic revivals in the Early Modern and Victorian eras.
Variants and near-equivalents include Roland (standard), Rowland (English), Rolland (French/Scots), Rolan/Rollen/Rollin, and the Romance forms Rolando and Orlando; the French feminine is Rolande. Nicknames range from Rolly/Rollie to Ro. Rollan itself remains a rare contemporary spelling, sometimes influenced by surname usage, yet it preserves the classic meaning and chivalric associations of its parent forms.
