I misread Ilon as Ilan until I spotted your query - thanks!Ilan is in the db all right, and so it should be. Plus, among the Comments I found this:Variant spellings: Alon, Eilan, Eilon, Elan, Elon, Ilon.
-- Nisha 1/30/2013 How reliable Nisha might be, of course, one does not know. But it seems convincing. The other apparent alternative - a masculine version of Ilona - isn't very likely.

I find it far more likely that Ilon is a masculine version of Ilona. Ilon isn't pronounced the same as Alon, Eilon etc. It's more like EE-lon
