Since you need a daemon regardless (talkd), I figured one devil (sic) is
a good as another! So I included the below. Found these.

  ytalk (rpmforge): communicate with any arbitrary number of users
    at once
  xchat: easy to use graphical IRC chat client for the X Window
  EPIC (rpmforge): (Enhanced Programmable ircII Client) is an advanced
    ircII chat client
  Gossip (kbs-CentOS-Extras): aims at making Jabber easy to use and
    tries to give GNOME users a real user friendly way of chatting...
  Konversation (kbs-CentOS-Extras): is a user friendly IRC client for
    KDE
