Spanish: from a personal name (Latin Dominicus meaning ‘of
the Lord’, from dominus ‘lord’, ‘master’). This was borne by a
Spanish saint (1170–1221) who founded the Dominican order of friars
and whose fame added greatly to the popularity of the name, already
well established because of its symbolic value.
