How Payton sounds
The two beats of Payton give it a natural, conversational flow. A nasal ends Payton, which lets its final beat ring a little before it fades.

The Saju view
Payton starts on M, B, P, F or V, a sound that Korean name reading would place in the water group and that this scheme carries over to English. Payton is a fire name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack fire. A chart lacking earth can lean on the fire in Payton, since fire is the parent of earth in Saju. A chart that already holds plenty of fire is better served by another name, since Payton would add to it.
