Jolan is a male name with origins that can be traced back to multiple cultures. It is a variation of the name Yolan and shares similar pronunciations in both British English (/dʒəʊˈlæn/) and American English (/dʒoʊˈlæn/). Despite not being among the most popular names, Jolan has been steadily used as a name for newborn boys in the United States since at least 1979. The frequency of its usage varies from year to year, but it consistently appears on the list of names given to newborns. Although Jolan does not have any specific cultural or historical associations, it offers parents a unique and distinctive choice for their baby boy's name.
