I know a kid named "Talon."

Wow. I know a Talon as well. I can't believe two sets of parents thought that was a good name.

Believe it or not, I know another couple who named their son "Blade." If that's not just asking for your child to be a convict, I don't know what is.

Count it as three "Talons" unless we are neighbors.

Our son plays competitive soccer and we hear all sorts of interesting names being yelled from the sidelines...

My husband works in the ER and, well...you can just imagine.

I, too, have occasion to see many children's' names in the course of my work. My recent personal favorite is "Deviant". I'm assuming it is pronounced Dee-vee-an-tay. But, who knows?

Purposeful misspellings are a ton of fun as well!
