Olando - meaning and origin
I'm interested in any information I can find on the name "Olando" (please note: NOT Orlando). Olando was the middle name of a deceased uncle of mine who was of Swedish extraction. So far I've found:
1. It may be of German origin originally (or Spanish or Italian)
2. It appears to be a variation of names Orlando, Roland, Rolando
3. It seems to mean "famous throughout the land"If anyone has further information about this unusual name, please share it with me - thanks!
