Dominque Origin and Meaning
The name Dominque is a boy's name.
Dominque is a variant spelling of the more common Dominic or Dominique, derived from the Latin name 'Dominicus' meaning 'of the Lord' or 'belonging to the Lord.' This particular spelling appears to be a less conventional version of the masculine form. The traditional Dominic traces back to St. Dominic, a Spanish priest who founded the Dominican order in the 13th century. While Dominique is more commonly used as the French form of the name for both genders, the spelling Dominque is relatively rare. The name carries connotations of religious devotion and spiritual heritage, while offering a slightly unique variation for parents seeking something distinctive yet with recognizable roots.
