Rawland is an uncommon, yet distinctive given name of Germanic origin. It is derived from two Old Norse elements: 'hráðr', meaning 'advice' or 'counsel', and 'lundr', which signifies 'grove' or 'wood'. Therefore, the name Rawland could be interpreted as "the grove of advice" or "wood of counsel". This unique combination makes Rawland a name that stands out yet maintains a connection to its historical roots. It is important to note that this name has not gained widespread popularity and may be considered unusual in many cultures.
"The name Rawland had a consistent popularity with six births occurring three times over the years, peaking in the mid-1920s and late 1940s, with a slight dip in the early to mid-1930s. Overall, there were 51 babies named Rawland born between 1921 and 1950."
