塔尔博特 is the standard four-character transliteration of the surname Talbot:
塔 (tǎ, 'pagoda') for 'Tal-',
尔 (ěr) connector,
博 (bó) for 'bo-',
特 (tè) for '-t' coda. The
尔 in middle position is a hallmark of English-sourced transliterations (compare
丘吉尔 Churchill,
麦尔斯 Mills). Famous bearers also include British race driver Talbot and the Talbot car marque.
