Domeka is in Origin.
Domeka is a Basque given name derived from domeka, the Bizkaian Basque term for “Sunday,” itself from Latin dominica, “the Lord’s (day).” As a personal name it shares the sense “belonging to the Lord” or “Sunday-born,” and in Basque tradition it is chiefly feminine, though occasionally treated as unisex.
Usage is modest and regionally concentrated in the Basque Country, with sporadic appearances in 19th–early 20th‑century parish registers and a small revival alongside other Basque names in the late 20th century. Close linguistic relatives and variants include Domenica and Domenico (Italian), Dominica and Dominic (English/Latin), Dominique (French, unisex), Dominika and Domenika (Slavic forms), and the Iberian Dominga, Domingo, and Domingas. Diminutives such as Domi or Meka occur informally. Overall, Domeka offers a succinct, culturally rooted alternative to the wider Dominic/Domenica family while preserving the ancient Christian meaning.
