I am slightly interesting.
For Japanese, they are 爪.I translated it literally.
I consulted a dictionary.Right expression is talons.
Japanese does not have the words to express talons with a word.

You and your relatives are 年男/Toshiotoko!
You are the leading role this year!
By the Japanese legend, Toshiotoko has good fortune.
It is happy to eat warm sweet adzuki soup in cold winter!
