Raslan descends from Turkic arslan, 'lion' — a word carried west by the Seljuks and taken up across the Arab world. In Arabic-speaking countries it appears as a given name and a well-known family name, especially in the Levant. It reads strong and clean in English (said 'RAHS-lahn').
In the U.S. it is very rare, carried by Arab families. Rare, bold, and vivid.
