I know a Dave. Gaz is an old 'chav' name as is Baz (Barry) Trev (Trevor) Kev (Kevin) Shaz (Sharron) and Chaz (Charlene, Chantell ect) Most of these were common names in the 1980s and acoicated with the early days of the chav movement. Most chavs now are just named after pop stars and footballers... No imagination from them these days

Errrm, since when? I know 2 Gaz's - both are Doctor's of Engineering. Gaz Snr is an Italian metalhead, and Gaz Jr would rip your head off, kick it round the room a bit before tying your body to the back of his mountain bike and dragging you down the side of Ben Nevis if you called him a chav!
Incidentally, they are both called Gareth :-P

Yeah I'm a chav and so is the 40 year old gaz at my work. My brother must be a chav too because he's called Kev... Funny last time I saw him he was a safe down to earth person that didn't hang around beating the shit out of people, shoplifting and smashing stuff.
