[8] Dómalda ‘Dómaldi’: Two forms of the name occur: Dómaldi (Yt; Yng) and Dómaldr (Íslb, ÍF 1, 27). Turville-Petre (1978-9, 64) claims that the first element dóm-, related to dómr ‘judgement’, only occurs in Continental and OE names (cf. Dómarr in st. 6/5). The second could be traced to Gmc *-waldaz ‘ruler’, a common element in names.
