Hi, Magia!
Forget Kolatch! He writes so much rubbish!
TAVITA is beautiful, but I can't imagine it has really to do with DAVID (even though Taavi in Finnish is DAVID – wonder, wonder …).
I would look upon it as a variant of TABIT(H)A.
The Latin "eight" explanation (OK-TAVIUS) sounds interesting, but no really convincing.

P.S.: Anything happening with the E-mail for the Carmelites?
