Not making the top 10 list were David Attenborough - BBC Broadcaster and Naturalist, David Duchovny - Actor (The X-Files, Californication), David Mamet - Author, Playwright, Screenwriter (Glengarry Glen Ross, The Verdict, Wag the Dog), David Tennant - Actor (Dr. Who, Casanova, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire), David Cross - Comedian, Writer, and Actor (Arrested Development, The Ben Stiller Show), David Crosby - Musician (Crosby, Stils, Nash, and Young; The Byrds; CPR), David Copperfield - Title Character in the Novel by Charles Dickens, David Spade - Actor (Just Shoot Me!, 8 Simple Rules, Rules of Engagement), David Sedaris - Author (Me Talk Pretty One Day, When You Are Engulfed in Flames), David Livingstone - Explorer (Dr Livingstone, I presume?), David Schwimmer - Actor, Director (Friends; Run, Fat Boy, Run), David Stern - NBA Commissioner, David Yates - Director (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows), David Copperfield - Stage Magician, David Hockney - Artist and Photographer, David Niven - Actor (Around the World in 80 Days, The Pink Panther), David Lachapelle - Photographer, David Frost - Journaist and Writer (Nixon Interviews).

An excellent mix of occupations for the top ten Davids with one athelete (Beckham), one talk show host (Letterman), two directors (Slade and Lynch), two actors (Carradine and Hasselhoff), four musicians (Gilmour, Byrne, Cook, and Bowie). In this list we have one duplicate name, David Copperfield, who is both a stage magician and the title character in Charles Dickens' novel "David Copperfield".

I compiled this list by searching for each of the Davids on a number of search engines and ranking them by the number of web pages, discussion forums, photos, videos, etc that are available online.

Do you believe "Kung Fu" legend David Carradine commited suicide?

Such a sad and bizarre death. RIP David, and my condolences to his family.

No.

What A Way To Go: Buried Alive
The most horrific moments of premature burial in movies. As tense and nerve-wracking as it may be to watch Uma Thurman break her knuckles as she leaps from a coffin with supernatural aplomb, Kill Bill, Vol. 2 (2004) is the most obvious title on this list and hence must be mentioned first.
