What is the meaning of the name Dominick ?

The baby name Dominick is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈdɒmɪnɪk/,/ˈdɑːmɪnɪk/,DOM-in-ik.

Dominick is Latin in Origin.

Dominick is the long-established Anglicized spelling of Dominic, from Latin Dominicus, meaning “of the Lord” or “belonging to the Lord.” The root dominus (“lord, master”) also underlies dies dominica, the Lord’s Day (Sunday), and children born on Sunday were sometimes given the name in early Christian communities. Through ecclesiastical Latin the name spread widely across Europe.

Its fortunes rose after Saint Dominic de Guzmán founded the Dominican Order in the 13th century; the spelling Dominick became common in English-speaking countries, especially among Catholic and Italian‑American families, and saw renewed popularity in the late 20th century. International variants include Dominic (standard English), Dominik (Central/Eastern Europe), Domenic and Domenico (Italian), Domingo (Spanish), Domingos (Portuguese), Dominikus (German), and Dominique (French, unisex); feminine counterparts include Dominica and Domenica. Common short forms are Dom, Nick, and Nicky.
