Dydd Sant Dewi Hapus!

Dydd Sant Dewi Hapus! Today is the Feast of Saint David, the same saint David who is the patron Saint of Wales. Apparently, one is meant to dress up in traditional Welshwear, according to this blog I found. This clever chap has a few suggestions of what else can be done today aside from donning costumes.


The one thing about this day I've always wondered is... if he is Saint David, why is it Sant Dewi and Not Sant Dafydd?

When St. David's Day is mentioned in Shakespeare's "Henry V" Fluellen calls it St. Davy's Day. Would Dewi be "Davy" in Welsh?
