Doland
Doland Origin and Meaning
Doland is a masculine name of uncertain origin, possibly derived from old English or Irish elements. It may be a variant of Dolan (an Irish surname meaning "dark-haired" or a descendant of Dobhailén) or a modification of Donald (from the Gaelic Domhnall, meaning "world ruler"). The name has a strong, solid sound with its two distinct syllables. Doland is extremely rare as a first name, though it appears occasionally as a surname. Its uncommon nature makes it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name with traditional masculine qualities but without widespread usage. The name projects strength and reliability while maintaining a certain uniqueness. In the United States, it may occasionally be found as a place name or surname more often than as a given name.
