Ditto, it seems very weak in comparison to Roman.

For some reason, I picture a chubby person ... I think it's the "roly-poly" connotations. And sadly I also picture Roland Rat. So not a very usable name today imo, sorry :-(_____________________________________________________________________"There are few more distressing sights than that

I don't care for it. I think of Rolaids.

It's one of my faves. I fell in love with "The Song of Roland" and the wonderful names within in my teens. I would probably never use it as a first name, as the possibility of nn Rolly/Roly makes me cringe, but I think it makes an especially handsome middle name.

I think of the Chanson de Roland, which makes it a beautiful name imo but for a boy of these days I would prefer Rowan or Roman. Note: Rowan *only* for a boy!!!

I like it, but can't stand the nn Rollie.If a man say, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother, whom he has seen, how can he love God, whom he has not seen?

I love Roland! It's on my favourites list and I think it's very handsome. I don't have any bad associations with it, at all.

My cousin is Roland, nn Rhody (not actually sure of spelling). Not sure where that came from, but I prefer it to Rolly.

I don't like it, it's not my style. I did know this Indian guy once who was very cute and his name was Roland.
