You are very welcome to ask for advice on bug-gettext. It's there that
you can find the experts. (I don't read emacs-devel usually.)

What matters for the domains is what code gets distributed together.

  * When you have two Lisp packages that are released by separate
    groups of developers, of course they must use separate translation
    domains. Otherwise you would have to co-ordinate the merging of their
    POT files, which makes no sense since they make releases at different
    times.

  * On the other hand, when you have two Lisp packages that are always
    released together, in the same tarball, it is more efficient for the
    translators if they receive one notification about a new POT file
    than two notifications about two POT files on the same day.

For Common Lisp code, the Common Lisp package name _may_ be used to
derive the domain name. But this is up to the developers.

For reference, i18n in CLISP is described here:
https://clisp.sourceforge.io/impnotes/i18n-mod.html
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Common-Lisp.html
and there is a sample and a test case in GNU gettext:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=blob;f=gettext-tools/examples/hello-clisp/hello.lisp.in
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=blob;f=gettext-tools/tests/lang-clisp
