Uh no If a griffon and a horse mate it ends up being a Hippogryph.

This is the result of getting bored and looking up the etymology of the word "alicorn". One of the first times it was used to mean "winged unicorn" rather than "unicorn horn" was:

1993 February 1, Anthony, Piers, Demons Don't Dream, Tor Books, ISBN 9780812534832, OL 9356602M, page 61:

An alicorn. A winged unicorn. There aren't many, but sometimes a griffin and a unicorn will meet at a love spring—well, I don't know what happens, but then we have alicorns.

Non-social Gilda and self-centered Flim are apparently together as Twilight treats both of them in a perfectly friendly manner.

All the comments are debating the linguistics of the word "Alicorn."
