Wise counsel or land of the roe deer
Raylan is a modern English name likely derived from the Germanic elements 'ragin' meaning counsel and 'land' meaning territory. It may also be interpreted as a variation of the surname Ryland, which refers to land where rye is grown or a meadow of roe deer. The name gained significant visibility in the early 21st century due to popular culture.
