I have no problem with it philosophically, but then I don't believe cultures own names. My only problem with Aviv is that it is "out there" as you say. Expect lots of questions about how it's prn, where you got it from, why you picked it, etc. Talia OTOH is perfectly fine and acceptable to use and shouldn't have any issues.
