Roan, Rowan and Roman are massively overused these days. Shame. I used to like them but way too trendy now and I know about 5-10 babies called a variation of Rowan. Dull.

Roan Kom Azgeda of Ice Nation, from The 100 Television Show is a bearer of this name. He is portrayed by American Actor, Zach McGowan. R.I.P. Roan. Died in the Final Conclave; killed by Luna Kom Flokru. One of my favorite characters on the show, because of him, I like this name a lot and added it to the list of what I might name my future son, should I find that special someone.
Not to be mixed up with the gaelic name Rowan which means "seal". Roan is german/dutch frisian derived from names with the germanic word "rhabhan" which means "raven".
Roan Carneiro is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist currently competing in the Welterweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. A professional competitor since 2000, Carneiro was the winner of the Battlegrounds MMA's one-night, eight-man tournament, in which he won three fights to become the champion.
I have a friend with this name, and it is a variant of Rón, which means "seal". He pronounces it "RON" using the BtN pronunciation guide (rhymes with "cone")
