Lando

Lando is a masculine given name, most familiar from Lando Calrissian, the suave smuggler-turned-administrator in the Star Wars films.

The name existed before—it's an Italian short form of names like Rolando or Orlando—but Star Wars cemented its pop-culture presence.

Parents naming sons Lando today are usually making the reference.
