Oh my goodness. I can't believe I missed that two days ago. I haven't giggled so hard in the office in a week, at least.

I think some of the coolest name characters are like that; not really common in everyday speech and with very specific meanings. I'm a big fan of uncommon, but legitimate, names.

Hi AiLong,

"Talk shop" is an idiomatic expression that means to talk about business. Strangely, you can't "talk business" in English, you can only talk ABOUT business, but you can "talk shop!" Go figure...
