Patronymica Britannica (1860)

R OLLE. The family of Lord Rolle rose upon the ruins of the monasteries in the XVI. century. The name may be local, but it seems more likely to be a modification of the Scandinavian Rollo, especially as we have the genitive form Rolles, as well as the local Rollesby, Rolleston, &c. Camden llaces it among Christian names.
