I DID look it up after everyone directed me to do so and I can admit that the term is more widely used than I originally thought, but many of the definitions also note that relics are objects of the past especially with historical interest, importance, or sentiment. That's the definition I'm familiar with so at that moment I didn't feel like a payphone was an accurate example, so I used the term slang... which I then retracted my use of.
I guess it came off as a dig but I really didn't mean it that way. I said I respect Rox for how reliable her dislike of a particular type of name is, but didn't find it particularly useful to continually read about when referring to said group of names. More like a "hey, I know you're style and I already know which names you're gonna hate, so you don't really need/have to tell me every time" Maybe I should've included a winky face ;) ;)
