Domiano is of Latin origin, derived from the Roman family name Domitius. It is composed of two elements: "domus" meaning home, and "ius" signifying law or right. Therefore, Domiano can be interpreted as 'of noble descent' or 'pertaining to the household'. This name was borne by several early saints in the Christian era, most notably Saint Domitian, a martyr from the 4th century. In Italy, especially in southern regions like Campania and Sicily, Domiano has been used historically as a given name. However, it is not among the most popular choices today, giving those who bear this name a unique distinction.
"Domiano is not a common name, with only five births recorded each in 1982 and 1984, followed by another five in 2021."
