They're completely different names
Click on these hyperlinks: Rohan, Rowan
As for pronunciation, I suppose in some accents they'd be the same. But in North America, they're pronounced very differently: Rowan's RO-an, while Rohan's RO-hawn.
Robin, Rolan / Roland, Roman, Ronen, Rónán (Ronan), Roshan, Rowland, and Roydon could be alternatives.

ro-WAN and ro-HAN are how I pronounce the anmes so I can see the spellings being used for the other name.

Rohan , Ruadhan , Ruan are all gaelic spellings of Rowan and all pronounced ROEin. Outside North America Rohan is a common spelling far more associated with the irish than hindi name. Infact in australia i know several Rohan(ROEin) and not one Rohan(ROE-han). This is also the case in the british isles.
