Bad baby name

I just found out there's a child in SST's class named Talon. Indifferent

  • I have met quite a few kids named Talon around 4-5 years old.  I think it's like in the 400s for popularity in the US.  Guess I don't think it's weird.

  • I know a kid named this. I wasn't a huge fan of the name when I first heard it. It's not too bad now. Still not my favorite.

    Really?? To me it sounds like something a 10 year old boy would want to name a baby.

  • I know a woman in her late twenties/early thirties named Talon. Although, to be fair, her mom was a teen mom...

    Of two that I know/met the parents, they are middle-class/middle-upper-class, 30-something parents.  I guess it's just more common sounding in my group IRL, so it doesn't surprise me.

    If I ever meet a kid named Talon, this is what I'm going to think of. Thanks for that copz.

  • Not the worst name I've ever heard - I'm not a fan myself, though....

    Laguna Beach was on from 2004-2006. ^^This kid is Talan. I'll bet that accounts for some of those kids. I'm ashamed for knowing this.
