Meaning and history
Rohan has several independent origins. In Sanskrit it means "ascending" or "growing," while an Irish surname and given name can derive from Ruadhán, meaning "little red one." It is also the name J. R. R. Tolkien gave to the horse-lords' kingdom in The Lord of the Rings. Notable bearers include Indian actor Rohan Shah.
