I would guess Jack Kerouac was one of the first to use it, reading poetry
in the San Francisco dives with bongo drums playing in the background in
the late 50s/early 60s. I wonder if daddio was commonly used before the
Kerouac and the other Beatniks?
Here's something on the Beatniks and hipsters:

and some other Literary movements, those decades ago:
