Meaning and history
Domenic is an English spelling variant of Dominic, influenced by Italian Domenico. The name comes from Latin Dominicus, meaning “of the Lord.” It was traditionally given to children born on Sunday, the Lord’s day, and gained strong Catholic significance through Saint Dominic, founder of the Dominican Order. Notable bearers include Canadian guitarist Domenic Troiano and Canadian ice hockey player Domenic Pittis. The spelling does not change the name’s Latin religious origin.
