Etymology in the sources

Source-reported

Original meaning: not settled in the sources.

Unknown. Theories have included connection with a dialectal term roine (“roar, thunder, noise”) (~ roikua?) and a comparison to Indo-European *kroyn-is (whence Proto-Germanic *hrainiz (“clean, pure”)). The surname and given name were inspired by depictions of the lake in popular literature in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, such as in poems by Zachris Topelius (especially Kesäpäivä Kangasalla) and Karl Collan.

About this dataset and its counting rules

Statistics count the spelling “Roine” as recorded by the publisher. When a spelling has several independent origins, the counts are not split between them. Counts measure people. Gaps are years without a published value, not zeros.

Rates per million are unavailable for this series because no compatible denominator has been imported.

Rounding: Published integer counts retained without rounding.
Suppression: Names occurring fewer than five times are omitted. Absence is unknown, not zero.
Ranking: computed by NameStoria from published counts; ties share a rank, next rank skips
