Dawe is English, Welsh in Origin.
Dawe is an English surname and rare given name that traces to Middle English Daw(e), a short form of David. Through David, it ultimately comes from Hebrew Dawid, meaning "beloved." In some cases the name arises from Middle English daw(e), "jackdaw," used as a nickname for a talkative or dark-haired person. The terminal -e reflects medieval spelling conventions rather than a change in pronunciation.
Recorded across medieval England as both a personal name and a hereditary surname, Dawe later settled chiefly as a family name in the West Country and beyond. As a given name it is a modern, brisk, surname-style choice in the English-speaking world, uncommon and leaning masculine but usable for any gender. Variants and related forms include Daw, Dawes, Daws, Dawson, Dawkin, and Dawkins; from the David line, see Dave, Davy, and the patronymics Davies and Davis.
