From Latin nōmen (“name”), a clipping of nōmen gentīle (“family name”). Doublet of name and noun.
nomen (plural nomina or nomens)
From Proto-Italic *nōmn̥, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁nómn̥ (“name”). The long ō (and spurious g in compounds) is from false association with gnōscō (“know, recognize”). In the grammatical sense of “noun”, it is a semantic loan from Ancient Greek ὄνομα (ónoma).
Cognate with Hittite 𒆷𒀀𒈠𒀭 (lāman), Ancient Greek ὄνομα (ónoma), Sanskrit नामन् (nā́man), Tocharian A ñom, Old Irish ainmm, Old Church Slavonic имѧ (imę), 古期英語 nama (English name). Doublet of onoma.
nōmen n (genitive nōminis); third declension
The Old Latin form nominus shows the rare genitive singular ending -us instead of the standard Classical Latin ending -is. This unique ending is poorly attested and largely exclusive to religious or legal documents.
Third-declension noun (neuter, imparisyllabic non-i-stem).
