I used to know a Dax - he was Indian and Dax was short for Daxesh.

I'm not overly keen on him it...

Its a font innit? Sure it was one of our wanky corporate branding discussions about using dax and courier

vegasmum-you beat me to it! My sons called Dexter and is known as Dex-it really suits him.

Don't take this the wrong way, but that's what my dog is called. Just can't quite see it on a human.

SquigglePigs - No offence taken at all! Our dog is called Rudy, if I hadn't already named him that, Rudy would be my first choice! Ha ha!

dexifehatz - Dexter and Dex - I love it! It's going on my shortlist! Thank you!

DON'T DO IT!!

Dax is the name of a glue type substance for catching rats and mice. I have used it.

What are you thinking?? Are you being serious?

I also have a dog named Dax. I am a Star Trek fan.

It is also a brand of hair wax and the name of the German stock exchange. Hmm

Bill Bailey's son is called Dax

I like Seth & Louis - and think Seth is not too similar to Seb.

But don't trust me - my DS is Jesse - and I know that isn't widely favoured!

Dax is the german share index (Deutscher Aktien Index) which, if you ever work in finance, wouldn't work that well Grin.
