Domas is a Lithuanian masculine given name, functioning as a short form of either Dominykas or Domantas. Both of these names ultimately derive from Dominic, which itself comes from the Late Latin Dominicus meaning "of the Lord." The name Dominic was traditionally given to children born on Sunday, reflecting the Latin dies Dominica ("the Lord's day"). Several saints have borne this name, most notably the 13th-century founder of the Dominican order of friars, Saint Dominic. In Lithuania, Domas has become an independent given name, often awarded with no religious connotations but as a streamlined, traditional-sounding choice. The name Domas is relatively simple and short, fitting the pattern of Lithuanian diminutives and nicknames that are used as full given names. It belongs to a broader family of names related to Dominic, including feminine forms like Domantė and cognates in other languages such as the Basque Txomin, Slovenian Dominik, Croatian Dinko, and the English variants Dominic and Domenic.
