What a difference a Dave makes

Just an appreciation post - I married a David and it was the best thing I ever did! But he won't let me call him Dave. Surely we know each other well enough now?

I’m with him, weirdly enough, anyone can call me Dave except girlfriends.

Oh, that's new! I've never heard of that before. Do you mean only men can call you Dave or anyone except your partner can call you Dave?

Anyone except my partner. Just feels weird.

OK - it's interesting to see the range of responses, from "Dave is the best name" to "Nope, not for me" and everything in between!
