I like it as a guilty pleasure. I personally wouldn’t use it because it’s the name of a medical center my grandma used to go to.

I like it. I do think it works better as a mn than a fn.

I love Avalon. I don't care that it is a bit trendy -not of itself but very trendy sounds (Ava, Evelyn) and a place name. I'd use it.

It has a nice sound, but it’s honestly like naming a child Arcadia or Camelot.

Don't like it

Love, love, love this name so much!!! It's beautiful, and would definitely use it on my child. There's a beautiful island in California called Avalon. I had a post of Avalon in the past.

My only downside is that the name does come from Arthurian literature. Avalon is where King Arthur was buried. People would assume if you are a fan of myths and legends.
Also, if you decide to have more children, you might want to find other names that go with Avalon, because Sarah, Jacob, and Avalon might not mix.
Then, there's a possiblity Avalon might be dated... picture a 45 year old Avalon, it would be cool, imo. But others might not take it seriously.
But there are senior citizens named Melody, Ryder, Carson...
My other alternatives are Aveline.
