Raylan may be on the rise as a baby name thanks to (male) TV lawman Raylan Givens, but the name is also occasionally used for girls: the statistical gender split is 15 to 1.  The -lan ending might be thought of as Lynn-like, with Raylan an updated spin on such midcentury concoctions as Rae-Lynn.

Raylan, one of an uncountable number of two syllable, surname-like <a href="https://nameberry.com/boys-names">boys’ names</a> end in n that are in style these days, is inspired by Raylan Givens, the cowboy hat-wearing U.S. Marshall created by writer Elmore Leonard and starring in the television series <em>Justified</em>.  The Ray part of the name is of course a traditional choice -- it's usually said to mean "wise" -- but the lan takes it out of Old School Raymond territory.  Other variations include Raylen, Raylon, Rayden and so on.  The name is also sometimes given to girls, but not nearly as often as it is for boys.
