According to ancestry
Now, Rone and Rohn
Rone - variant of Roan
oan
1. Irish: variant spelling of Rowan.
2. English (of Norman origin): habitational name from Rouen in Normandy. In Scotland the name is also derived in part from any of several places named Roan in the Borders and Strathclyde. There was also a medieval female personal name Roana, which may have given rise to some examples of the surname.
Rowan
Scottish and Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic à Ruadháin (see Ruane). In Scotland, this name is sometimes Anglicized as Roland, while in Ireland it is often Rooney.
Rohn
1. nickname for a coarse or uncouth person, from Middle High German ron(e) ‘stump’, ‘block’.
2. habitational name from places named Rohne, Rohna, or Ronau in Silesia, Thuringia, and Saxony.
3. from a short form of the medieval personal name Hieronymus (see Jerome).
LOL.. so it's origin is almost scientifically anything depending on how you spell it. Hope this provides you at least with some entertainment.
