I actually quite like it. It rings trendy (what with the Aldon,
Arden, Aidens)... but isn't.
However, I do know someone with
Albin as a surname, so that was my first thought.
In this case, I like
Alan better. In fact, I love
Alan... since is it so simple and sweet.
However, Al-names are not usable in general (to me), because of the inevitable nickname
Al.
