I was talking to myles just now, and we both agreed that most people on this site who are from Australia have either the name Dave or Scott. Did anyone else take note of this strange occurance? |

are you sure they all don't sound different with the accent? Ie it's not all "dave" or "scott", it's "daavee" & "dave" & "dve" & "dav"....

I suppose your reffering to me, not everone in Australia has the name Dave... As for the site there is more Aussies then just the staff and there isnt that many scotts and daves here either... --

I know more Matts than Daves and Scotts combined. That ruins your theory. |

I would guess the frequency of names follows trends as it is here in Germany: A few years ago my name (Stefan) was very common and now you can`t call out a "Kevin" or "Justin" in a kindergarten without a horde of children coming running to you... -- --> Far Cry meets Shakespeare`s "The Tempest": SturmMOD |
