I love the name Nolan. It sounds both sophisticated and cool. I envision someone who is educated and studious, but also likes to relax and have a good time. Also the meaning (chariot fighter/champion) is pretty epic. Overall, a great name.

I think this is an "old man" sounding name. For some reason, it also sounds like the name of an unintelligent redneck with buck teeth. It's a good thing that this name isn't very popular. The only thing worse than calling a boy this, would be to name a girl Nolan- that would be horrible.
