Roslyn makes me think of Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland a place that has been linked to the Holy Grail but spelt with two l's. The name Roswell has many variations such as Russell, Rowsell, Rosewell etc. The name is Anglo Norman in origin and translated is "ros"- red and "ell"- small one and usually referred to a small person with red hair. The surnames can also be used as given names in fact I know someone who is called Russell Rowsell
