What about “diven”? You know, like drive, drove, driven.

I like the southern US option "I done dived", can't missed the past tense intention (or was it intension) with that version

 

[chillyinCanada]

“I will dive the Maldives” but “I dove the Maldoves”

Pronunciation is
Maul Deeves
And I know you didn't deeve there
Nor deeved there
