1. What would you rate it out of 10? Do you like it?
8/10 - I like it. I wouldn't use it because of my associations with it, but I do like the sound.
2. Is it usable?
Yes. Despite popular connotations, Rohan is not only from LOTR.
3. How does it compare with Ronan (which I like) and Rowan (which I don't)?
I prefer Rowan to Ronan, which I don't like at all. I've heard Rohan pronounced similarly to Rowan. I prefer the sound of Rohan to both.
4. Do you like pronounce it ro-HAN or ro-HARN (not sure if this is the best way to describe the pronunciations)?
I pronounce it RO-han.
5. Do you think the different pronunciations would be a burden to a person with this name?
No, not more so than other name issues. My name is Alexandria and I get Alexandra all the time. Mistakes happen.
