Medieval Sourcebook: The Golden Legend: St. Dominic
Dominic is said as a keeper of our Lord, or else as kept of God. Or it is said of dominicus as to the etymology of this name, that is dominus. It is said keeper of our Lord in three manners, that is to wit, keeper of the honour of our Lord, as touching to God, keeper of the vineyard or the flock of our Lord, unto his neighbour, keeper of the will of our Lord, or of his commandments as touching himself. Secondly, he is said dominicus, as kept of our Lord. Our Lord kept him in his threefold state. [eng] |

St. Dominic of Silos
St. Dominic, founder of the Order of Preachers, was named after this Benedictine abbot, who lived a century before him.
