What do you think of Halcyon as a name? Does it seem more male or female?

(Edit: Halcyon, a term that originates from the Greek myth of Alcyone, is used most often to mean golden or marked by peace and prosperity. I am not considering this as a name for my child, BTW.)

It's a name fairly frequently used as a part of show animal names, so I wouldn't use it on a human.

However, I think Alcyone is a nice, feminine-sounding name, although I wouldn't want to use the nickname "Al."
