Reply to: My sister's odd name by Matthew
is not the Welsh form of David, it's the English nickname for a Welshman (based on the fact that David/Dafydd (davith) was a very popular name in Wales. It's unlikely that Tafline is related to 'Taffy'; Tafline is more probably a surname. Try a good surname dictionary.
