Nomen Damasci primum in geographico Thutmosis III indice ut T-m-ś-q saeculo 15 a.C.n. apparuit.[2] Urbs Arabice Dimashq al-Shām (دمشق الشام) appellatur, nomen saepe ad Dimashq vel al-Shām ab incolis urbanis aliisque civibus Syriae et hominibus aliarum civitatum Arabicarum redditum. Al-Shām est nomen Arabicum quod 'septentrionalis' et 'Syria' significat; Syria ipsa, praecipue historica Syria Maior, Bilād al-Shām (بلاد الشام 'terra septentrionalis') vicissim appellatur. Etymologia nominis antiqui T-m-ś-q est incerta, sed radix fortasse est praesemitica. Fontes scripti id attestantur ut Dimašqa Accadiane, T-ms-ḳw Aegyptice, Dammaśq (דמשק), Aramaice Vetere, et Dammeśeq (דמשק) Hebraice Biblice. Litterae Accadianae in Epistolis Amarnensibus, ex saeculo 14 a.C.n., inveniuntur. Posteriores nominis litterae Aramaice resh (littera r) importunum saepe comprehendunt, fortasse a radice dr 'domus' motae; unde nomen Darmeśeq Qumranicum, et Darmsûq (ܕܪܡܣܘܩ) Lingua Syriaca scriptum.[3][4] Latina urbis nomen, Damascus, ex Δαμασκός verbo Graeco deducitur, quod ex Aramaice דרמשק 'locus bene inrigatus' ortum est.[5][6]
