where did the name domino's come from
Domino's Pizza By 1965, Tom Monaghan had purchased two additional pizzerias; he now had a total of three locations in the same county. Monaghan wanted the stores to share the same branding, but the original owner forbade him from using the DomiNick's name. One day, an employee, Jim Kennedy, returned from a pizza delivery and suggested the name "Domino's" [8] Monaghan immediately loved the idea and officially renamed the business Domino's Pizza, Inc. in 1965.[11]
