I think this is an "old man" sounding name. For some reason, it also sounds like the name of an unintelligent redneck with buck teeth. It's a good thing that this name isn't very popular. The only thing worse than calling a boy this, would be to name a girl Nolan- that would be horrible.

My sisters would be very disappointed to see their name described as "masculine! It is such a pity, with a little responsible research you could have found this out! Nolan is never used as a forename in real Irish culture

Their surname is Nolan - an ancient Celtic/Norman family with the feminine Irish form as Ní Nualláin, masculine form being Ó Nualláin.
