Should have settled for Dave, then I could claim "not me" .............many Daves litter my past and present. My year group at school, exactly 100 boys, had more Davids / Daves than any two combinations. DoB 1937.

Once a year I get my Carol sung for me. "Once in Royal David's city"

Mods feel free, as ever.
