I'm unsure that the article should start with David's Gaelic name - is there any indication that he was generally addressed like that in life? Surely he would have been a French or Scots speaker? After all, we don't have "Seamus IV" (anglicised as James IV). - TG (not signed in) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.41.207.198 (talk) 19:24, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
A good point. It is difficult to imagine that David would not have spoken the language of his parents and of the Scottish court - Scots. Equally, given the lenght of his stay in France and the fact that French was the principal language of literature, it is unimaginable that he could not speak the French laguage, however there is no particualr reason to assume that he could speak Gaelic, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.104.16 (talk) 13:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
According to a recent biography of James II, he is the first Scots monarch who we know what he looked like, a contemporary drawing survives. Therefore all images of earlier Scots monarchs are artists's imaginings. PatGallacher (talk) 16:16, 6 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
