I really like it

Jeschara · 29/01/2022 02:49

I like it.

Rainbowqueeen · 29/01/2022 02:50

Love!!
Gorgeous name and not too popular so unlikely to be heaps of them around the same age

RobertSmithsLipstick · 29/01/2022 02:51

Dominic Cummings.

blyn72 · 29/01/2022 03:18

Dominic is a very good name, go for it.

MimiDaisy11 · 29/01/2022 03:25

I quite like it but dislike the nickname Dom. Also I wouldn’t worry about a Dominic Cummings connection as mentioned above. People will forget him him soon and the kids generation won’t know him.

NKFell · 29/01/2022 03:43

I have a Dominic so, I like it! He only gets ‘Dom’ very occasionally by friends, he’s a ‘Dominic’ so far (fingers crossed!)

Yeah as pp said don’t worry about Dominic Cummings, no one will be thinking of him in a few years.

Cummings

FayCarew · 29/01/2022 08:37

Dominic Cummings and Dominic Raab.
Gets shortened to Dom - big bad Dom.

A No from me.

SummaLuvin · 29/01/2022 09:11

I don't like it, it's a rather abrupt sounding name, I like Dom and Nick even less.

RuthW · 29/01/2022 09:20

Nice

Mumofgirls2017 · 29/01/2022 12:50

I used to like it but now all I think is Dominic Cummings unfortunatley

wingsofabird · 29/01/2022 14:52

Absolutely love it! Great name, wish I'd thought of it!

RedCandyApple · 29/01/2022 14:55

I’ve always hated Dominic, and even worse Dom

ImNotWhoYouThinkIam · 29/01/2022 14:58

I love it, but then it's DS1s name so Im biased!
On the rare occasion he gets called Dom we correct them.

tearinghairout · 29/01/2022 15:04

I'm not terribly keen on it, maybe because it sounds a bit formal. I prefer biblical names like Gabriel and Adam. But it's a classic name, and I can't think of a reason why you shouldn't go for it.

IsThePopeCatholic · 29/01/2022 15:09

No. Sounds a bit wet to me.

Bluemamma · 29/01/2022 18:56

I like it but dislike nn Dom so that would put me off.
Overall it’s a nice name

It was our front runner for a boy!
