Random information on the term “Dapper ___”:
Clifford Roland Dapper (January 2, 1920 – February 8, 2011) was a Major League Baseball catcher who played for the Brooklyn Dodgers during the 1942 season. Listed at 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m), 190 pounds (86 kg), he batted and threw right-handed.
Born in Los Angeles, Dapper began his baseball career at age 18 for the Class-B Bellingham Chinooks in the Western International League. With many players unavailable due to World War II, Dapper got his shot at the majors in April 1942, appearing in eight games for Brooklyn. He recorded eight hits in 17 at-bats for a .471 batting average, including a home run, one double, two runs and nine RBI. Despite his hot hitting, Dapper was unable to dislodge all-star Mickey Owen from the catcher’s position for the Dodgers, and he was returned to the minors. Later that season he was drafted into the US Navy, and missed the 1943–45 seasons while serving in the South Pacific during World War II.
Random information on the term “DAN”:
Dan is a given name and surname in various cultures.
Dan is an old Scandinavian given name with several disputed origins. The most likely theory[citation needed] is that it originated from the Old Norse ethnonym danir for Danes. This in turn originated from the Proto-Germanic masculine word *daniz. There are several historical variants including **Halbadaniz “half-Dane”, as well as *Daniskaz “Danish” (where the *-iskaz suffix is ancestral to modern English -ish).
The name Dan is also a Hebrew given name, after Dan, the fifth son of Jacob with Bilhah and founder of the Israelite Tribe of Dan. It is also (along with the variant Danny) a given name or a nickname for people named Daniel or possibly Jordan.
As an English surname, Dan is a variant spelling of Dann. Dann, another variant spelling of which is Dane, is a toponymic surname which derives from the Old-Norse danir and earlier as the Proto-Germanic word *daniz. It also originates from the Middle English dene and Old English denu, “valley”.
