In classical Greek mythology, Halcyone, daughter of Aeolus, was married to Ceyx, King of Thessaly. On a voyage at sea, Ceyx fell overboard and drowned. Halcyone turned into a giant kingfisher when she saw his corpse. Her lamentations awakened the gods who then turned Ceyx into a kingfisher, and Ceyx and Halcyone mated. (Google, of course)
