If you are related, add yourself to the following register

https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

If David knows he was adopted, and has any interest in tracing birth relatives, he may have added himself to it.

He isn't in any tree on GR in his birth name

If you are looking for David then afraid no one can help with adoption records or a new name

Have you looked in members trees to see if anyone has him listed
