Carnivore Chris 2,328 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I know someone called Dex. Not sure what it's actually short for though thinking of it as I've always known him simply as Dex, but it's probably short for Dexter or Declan I'm guessing.

I'm pretty sure those 3 baby boys called Kristaps were born in Latvian immigrant families in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
