The name Rohan is many things to many people. It's a Hindi name, an alternate spelling of the Irish Rowan, and a place name from The Lord of the Rings. To top it off, the Hindi version became a standard in the Caribbean thanks to legendary cricket player Rohan Kanhai. Got that? Then you're ready to tackle the pronunciations. If you want an Irish style, say "Rowan," otherwise pronounce a hard "h."
