It's a good name, has a nice meaning. But it wouldn't work in Australia as the word "Dag" is slang for a messy, unkempt person. Just a heads up for Scandinavian parents living in Australia!
Dag Otto Lauritzen is a Norwegian retired professional cyclist who is currently a cycling commentator.

Though it's pronounced differently, "dag" is an Australian slang term for a person who dresses unfashionably or sloppily. It's a very casual insult, and is often used with some affection.
Usage: Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, English (Modern)Pronounced: DANG (Swedish), DOW (Danish), DAG (English)It is also a diminutive of DAGGETT and names with this element.
Dag is way too close to 'Fag' Spare your child the pain and embarrassment. Please.

How is the word/name "Dag" too close to fag? You are very immature if this is your first association. I wonder if people even look at name meanings and try pronouncing before posting such foolish and childish comments. I get it, you're obviously American, but I'm sure you can do it if you *try*. And fag isn't a bad word either. I hope you aren't trying to push religious views on a naming site, as that'd be stupid.
