- Dominic Meaning
- From the Late Latin name Dominicus meaning "of the Lord". This name was traditionally given to a child born on Sunday. Several saints have borne this name, including the 13th-century founder of the Dominican order of friars. It was in this saint's honour that the name was first used in England, starting around the 13th century. It is primarily used by Catholics. Dominic originates in Latin language and means "Lord"s child". Having been borne by numerous saints, the name became popular mainly within Roman Catholic families, often given to boys born on Sunday. As a masculine given name, it has lately won back its former popularity in the United States.
