DAZHDBOG could mean something else, not ''a giving god''. In old Croatian language (Slavic by its origins) DAZHD (DAŽD) means rain. So DAZHDBOG might be ''a god of rain'' and not a giving god. Makes more sense to me (I'm Slavic).
To give something in Slavic would be ''DATI'', and ''DAZHD'' has nothing in common with that word. I'm quite sure that ''DAZHDBOG'' means ''a god of rain'' even though I've never heard of that in our ancient mythology.
