Origin: American
Dak in its essence is a very practical name. It comes from the term dak, which was originally the term used for rest houses or post stations for travelers along postal roads. However, today, it has much less to do with delivery services and stations and far more to do with athletes; namely, one athlete—Dak Prescott. Prescott is widely regarded as one of the most well-known quaterbacks, having made his name with the Dallas Cowboys.
