This is unofficially the third year that National People Named Dave Day is being observed on February 1st. People named Dave Day has been submitted and hopefully this day will be officially observed on an annual basis!
There are people named Dave throughout all walks of life. As a matter of fact, you may be related to someone named Dave or work with someone named Dave! If not, here are a list of some famous Daves: Big Dave, Dave Chappelle, Dave Navarro, Dave Ritter, Dave Grohl, Dave Duerson, Dave Mustaine, Dave Foley, Dave Kingman, Dave Rudabaugh, and even, Dave Thomas!
Sorry, Dave Coulier, missed you the previous year! 
The name Dave is a short form of David. The name David is a derivation of an ancient Mesopotamian given name and appears in the Bible as the Biblical Hebrew name דָּוִד (Dāwīḏ pronunciation: [dɔːˈviːð]; Modern Hebrew: [daˈvid]), meaning "Darling" or "Beloved". How fitting!!
HOW YOU CAN OBSERVE:
Stop by Wendy's, 2900 W. Plainfield Rd., Joliet, IL 60435 between 21:00-22:00 hours (9:00pm-10:00pm) on the 1st of February 2020, for a fresh-made salad or another tasty treat! While there, feel free to socialize with people named Dave and wish them Happy Birthday!
