    Name Meaning

    Hungarian (mainly Domán): from the personal name Domján (see Domian ), an equivalent of Damian .

    Slovak (also Domáň), Polish, and Czech: from a derivative of local equivalents of the personal name Thomas , hence a variant of Toman , or from a derivative of a Slavic personal name based on the element dom ‘(at) home’ (from Old Slavic domъ ‘home’), as for example Slovak and Czech Domaslav, Polish Domasław. The homonymous Sorbian cognate (also Domań) is apparently found in Germanized forms, only (see Domann and Thomann ; see also 3 below).

    Americanized form of German Domann , a surname partly of Sorbian origin (see 2 above).
