Re: David or Daniel and why?
in reply to a message by )(
David ...
It goes a bit against my grain since Daniel is in my family, and David isn't.
If I were naming a son and it were down to these two, honestly I'd let the other parent pick. It's that close.
Daniel is a great name, however David is a great name, and also it's heroic and bright.
It's like the difference between Claire and Catherine, kinda. Catherine, like Daniel, is great, but just ... squishier.
I'd rather dance with a Dan. I'd rather be taught a difficult subject by a Dan. I'd rather have a deep conversation with a Dan.
But I'd rather date a Dave, and if I have to choose a surgeon to operate on me based only on his name I'd pick David.
