[Opinions] Re: Roland
in reply to a message by Felie
I think I like it, but it's one vowel sound away from my last name, so I feel like I can't really contemplate it much. I pronounce it ROH-lənd, and I guess prefer that.
It feels friendly and a bit silly, but in an endearing way. I do like the nickname Roly. I wouldn't have thought that, but I sometimes call my baby that (because he's at the age where he keeps trying to roll places), and I actually think it sounds cute!
I couldn't say how it's perceived, I'm not sure I've met one. My guess is it would feel sort of old-fashioned-standard? Like Dennis or Gerald.
