[Opinions] Re: Davy
I like David, but Davy is so babyish. It's like Timmy or Stevie; it's a nn that stays in diapers. Bobby or Johnny grow up, Nicky and Joey only grow up if the bearer is a Mafioso, but Timmy and Stevie and Davy ar all stuck in toddlerhood.I do like Dave as a nn for David, it'd be kind of comical to see a little Dave, it's such a grown-up sort of name. Like Bill or Bob, it's funny to think of a little one.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
