Oh, its also from Arthurian legend.
And its pronounced [\ˈa-və-ˌlän\ ]
I copied and pasted that from Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary.
Avalon? Love It? Hate It?

There's a beach town in New Jersey called Avalon as well. Since you live in NYC, some people you know might be familiar with it and there's a possibility your child could be teased.
Aside from that, I think it's an attractive name and goes well with your other children's names.
