Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “alkuṓn (ἀλκυών) aukuṓn (αὐκυών),” meaning “kingfisher, halcyon.” Some unreliable Greek sources support that it derives from the following two elements: “háls (ἅλς)” (salt, brine, sea, wit) plus “kyéo (κυέω)” (cover, hide “Attic Greek pregnant”).” 1) Alcyone (Halkyónē) was the daughter of Aeolus, either by Enarete or Aegiale. She married Ceyx, son of Eosphorus, the Morning Star. 2) Alcyone (Halkuṓn), in Greek mythology, was the name of one of the Pleiades, daughters of Atlas and Pleione, or, more rarely, Aethra.
