Just to mention again, this name is pronounced RAHL-o. That means anything with rolling has nothing to do with this name, in meaning and sound.

This sounds more like a nickname, and it doesn't have a very mature or sophisticated sound to it. It's a bit of an amusing name, too. I would probably laugh if I heard a parent shout ''Rollo, come here!''
Rollo Tomasi is an imaginary murderer in the movie L. A. Confidential.

I cannot think of this name without envisioning a rolly-polly person, having seen the animated film version of "101 Dalmations" (Rolly was one of the puppies, and a rather pudgy little one). Please have mercy on your child and don't name them this.
