  1. We thought it was a strong, attractive name for a young man. Unique but not too different!

  2. We loved that this was a perfect unique spin on the common name David. We call him Davi for short.

  3. The reason I named my son Davis is because I named him after my grandma who died when my mother was a child. Davis is her maiden name so that’s how I came up with the name. I was unlucky that I never got to meet her but I know she looks down on us and keep us safe.

  4. My husband’s name is David and it runs in the family and he wanted to name him I
    David because of that! It was too common for me though so when we heard Davis we loved it!
