So where did the name Talon come from and what is its significance.

Maybe this was the inspiration:

Talon is a recurring character in the Nitendo's Legend of Zelda series. He is the owner of Lon Lon Ranch. Talon frequently acts irresponsibly and carefree; he does little to no work at Lon Lon Ranch, leaving the hard work to Ingo, the ranch hand. More than once, Talon is found sleeping, completely ignorant of other people worrying about him.
