El sufix -on- sovint es troba en noms de divinitats gàl·liques i britàniques. El nom tribal dumnonii, trobat a Britània, significaria per tant ‘poble del déu del món'. L'irlandès antic fir vol dir ‘homes', i per tant Fir Domnann tindria el mateix significat que el nom tribal britànic, cosa que porta a la conjectura que aquestes tribus tenien un origen comú. Per exemple proposa que els Domnann eren uns poble pre-goidèlic qui, amb els , invadiren el sud-est de la costa d'Irlanda des de Britània. La teoria d'O'Rahilly dels P-Celtic precedents als goidelics a Irlanda no war àmpliament acceptada pels experts d'avui, però la idea d'una connexió entre les tribus britàniques i irlandeses del mateix nom encara es manté. En la literatura irlandesa antiga els Fir Domnann es trobaven a Cóice Laigean (Leinster). Un poema datat del segle VII acredita el seu governant Mess-Telmann amb el reialme de la província i amb l'exercisi del poder des del lloc reial de Leinster a . El topònim Inber Domnann, ara a l'entrada de la badia de al nord del comtat de Dublín a la costa est d'Irlanda preserva el nom tribal. No obstant això, l'àrea amb una major associació de topònim amb els Fir Domnann es troba al nord-oest de Mayo: la Iorrais Domnann, de la qual l'actual baronia d'Iorras pren el seu nom, i els propers Mag Domnann i Dún Domnann.

In early Irish literature the Fir Domnann were located in Cóice Laigean (Leinster). A probably 7th-century Irish poem credits their ruler Mess-Telmann with the overkingship of the province and withwielding power from the royal site of Leinster at . The place-name Inber Domnann, now Malahide Bay inlet in north County Dublin on the east coast of Ireland preserves the tribal name. Yet the area with the strongest place-name associations with the Fir Domnann is in north-west Mayo: the Iorrais Domnann, from which the modern barony of Erris takes its name, and nearby Mag Domnann and Dún Domnann.
