Accalon

Meaning: (Lover of Morgan le Fay (15th Century), a champion from Gaul and the lover of Morgan le Fay in the Arthurian sagas. They plotted to steal Excalibur, but Merlin helped Arthur to beat Accalon in battle.)

Origin: (Arthurian Legend, Old English, Middle Welsh)

Pronunciation: (A-cca-lon, AK-a-lon, ak-uh-lon)

Gender: Male

I have decided to use this as a Prince and older brother of one of my main characters in a future novel. His mother would be Eliora and sisters Chloe and Eolande *see Eliora, Chloe and Eolande on list of posts*. Accalon seems so old of a name and in truth with relation to the Arthurian legend it is indeed old but that is why I chose to use it. I have never seen it before and it is so cool that I love it. The meaning is very interesting and iconic to the Arthurian legends as well.
