Eagle / Falcon / Hawk
鷹 is the way to write eagle, falcon, or hawk in Chinese.
It means hawk or falcon in Japanese Kanji, and simply "eagle" in old Korean Hanja. Though we have different words for them in English, eagles, falcons, and hawks are all seen as the same general type of bird in Asian languages.
If you are looking for the Dutch surname Valk, or the German surname Falco by meaning, this would be a good character for you.
There are other multi-character words (most of them contain this character) which express different specific species of birds of prey (bald eagle, osprey, golden eagle, etc). If you need a more specific title, just contact me.
White Eagle Style
Bai Ying Pai
白鷹派 is the title "Bai Ying Pai" or "White Eagle School".
The first character means white.
The second means eagle, falcon, and/or hawk.
The third means school (as in the school or style of martial arts).
Black Eagle / Condor
鷲 is the way to write black eagle, or condor in Chinese.
It means eagle (sometimes vulture) in Japanese Kanji. 鷲 hasn't been in common use in Korean for hundreds of years, so it's hard to say what bird it represented in old Korean Hanja.
There are other multi-character words which express different specific species of birds of prey (bald eagle, osprey, golden eagle, etc).

Eagle Claw Overturning Fist
鷹爪翻子拳 is the title of a Chinese martial arts style known as "Ying Zhua Fan Zi Quan" or "Eagle Claw Overturning Fist".
This style was derived from a combination of 鷹爪派 (Eagle Claw School) and 子母拳 (Son-Mother Fist). The title "son-mother" may seem odd, but it refers to a fist or punch seemingly coming out of another fist or punch. In modern times, 子母彈 is a title for "cluster bomb" (bombs coming out of another bomb).
The Eagle Claw School
鷹爪派 is the title of a Chinese martial arts style known as "The Eagle Claw School".
It is believed this style was developed by General Yue Fei in the early 12th Century.
