"Dave" is a diminutive form of the personal name "David." In Spanish, it is customary to form the diminutive by either shortening the name in some fashion (Example: Roberto -> Beto), or, simply suffixing 'ito' to the name (Example: Pablo -> Pablito). As 'David' is already a short, two-syllable name, it is customary to choose the later alternative, 'Davidito.' 'Davidito' is equally serviceable as a translation for the two most common diminutive forms of 'David': Dave and Davie/Davy.
