    Baton is also a similar word yeah, but maybe more reserved for bigger sticks like the ones you throw to your dog, baguettes are smaller more delicate.

      That’s interesting, because for English-speakers, a baton is more closely associated with a delicate little conductor’s baton, though I suppose those big twirly sticks with pompoms that cheerleaders throw are also called batons.
