What is the meaning of the name Doma ?

The baby name Doma is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced DOH-ma,/ˈdoʊmə/.

Doma is Japanese, Slavic in Origin.

Doma is a multicultural given name with distinct roots. In Tibetan and Himalayan contexts (notably among Sherpa and Nepali-Tibetan speakers), Doma is a vernacular spelling of Dolma/Drolma, the Tibetan name of the goddess Tara; it conveys the sense of “Savioress” or “Liberator.” In Central and Eastern Europe, Doma functions as a familiar short form of names from Latin Dominicus/Domina - such as Dominik, Dominika, Domonkos, Domenico, and Domna - thus carrying the meaning “of the Lord” or “lady.” In Hungarian it also appears independently as a masculine given name derived from Domonkos.

Usage spans Tibetan/Bhutanese/Nepalese feminine naming traditions and Slavic–Hungarian circles, where it is a cozy nickname and, increasingly, a minimalist standalone choice. Variants and relatives include Dolma/Drolma (Tibetan), Dominika/Dominik, Domenico/Domenica, Domingo/Dominga, Domonkos, and Russian/Slavic Domna; diminutives and short forms include Domi, Domek, and Domka. Cultural gender varies: largely feminine in Tibetan areas, unisex elsewhere.
