I'm not a big fan of "cosmic coincidences" and the such, but, while thinking today, I realized that 3 people who I am a huge fan of all have the same first name. David Milch, David Gray, and Dave Letterman.

I mean I put these guys at the very top of my list becasue each of them faces the truth of life and human nature right down to the bone - and it is reflected in their art. (kind of like Mark Twain did, in my opinion)

The fact that they are all named David kind of blew my mind today. Thank God I am a Bruce Springsteen and Garth Ennis fan - or I might be totally off the rails today

PS - I apologize for the very limited scope of this thread - I'm sure it will fade off the boards quickly

Maybe we could use this thread to celebrate famous people with the name David?

You're obviously not serious!? *looks appalled*Of course he is not!

I am pretty sure he did that even though a ransom was already paid by some distant relative.

I find that I like people named David (I'm dating one). I also like people named Alex and Dillon (Dylans are cool too). I tend to dislike Ryans, Mikeys and girls with "K" sounding names (Karlie, Kayla, Kyla, etc.). I also dislike "Linseys." Coincidence? I think not. Parents who are attracted to certain names might just be the type to raise their kids to be douchebags. Who knows? There's a graduate student thesis in there somewhere.

That's funny. I had a moment like that at work once, when I was in an office with a few other Davids and had to call one looking for another: "Hi Dave, this is Dave, is Dave there?"

Once, I worked for a police force as a civilian and one of the officers who was a Sergeant told me that there was a Sergeant in the force whose surname was Sergeant. One day, an Inspector came into the room and asked 'Have you seen Sergeant Sergeant, Sergeant?'

My two most "beloved" men in the world are David!!

It's the cutest name in the world.

Also, it's never Dave to me.
