Your name is too long.
Find the short one.
Type a name. This finds domains where the ending is part of the name — holl.day, devl.in, marc.us — checks whether each one is actually available, and tells you how sure it is.
A person's name, a business name, a project. Letters and numbers only.

Why every answer here carries a grade
Ask a typical domain checker about google.li and a good number of them will tell you it is available. It is not — it is Google's, and has been for years. The tool asked a directory service called RDAP, got back 404 not found, and reported that as "nobody owns it."
The catch is that .li publishes no RDAP service at all. The 404 did not mean "no such domain." It meant "there is nobody here to ask." Around 238 of the 1,438 live top-level domains are in that position, and they include most of the ccTLDs people actually want for a short name: .li .gg .im .io .me .co .sh .ws .st.
So this tool reads IANA's own bootstrap file first to find out which registries can be asked, queries those registries directly, and where it genuinely cannot ask it says so instead of guessing. Four grades:
- Proof
- The registry handed back a record for this domain. It is taken. There is no arguing with this one.
- Strong
- The registry's own directory has no such domain, or a registrar quoted a live price to register it. Trust this.
- Weak
- This TLD runs no directory service, so the answer comes from DNS instead. DNS can prove a domain is taken; it can never prove one is free, because a domain somebody registered and never pointed anywhere looks exactly like one nobody has bought. Confirm at a registrar before you plan around it.
- Unknown
- We could not find out — a timeout, or a registry asking us to slow down. Not a hint either way.
Available is not the same as cheap
A short label in one of the newer TLDs can be completely unregistered and still priced at fifty times the base rate, because the registry has flagged it as premium. Where a registrar will quote us a real per-domain price, that price is what you see, with a premium marker if it carries one. Where it will not, you get the TLD's base rate labelled as such — a floor, not a quote. A price with no premium marker means we could not check for one, which is not the same as there being none.
Where the candidates come from
- hack
- The name splits at a real TLD and the domain spells it out: holli.day from Holliday, devl.in from Devlin.
- near-hack
- The same trick after the word loses one letter, which is how you get holl.day — reads as the name, spells it slightly differently. No exact split can reach that one, and it is usually the best answer on the page.
- initial-hack
- First initial plus surname, split at the TLD.
- vowel-drop
- Vowels removed — short to type, awkward to say down a phone. Marked hard to say where that applies.
- append
- No cleverness, just a short ending. Sometimes that is the right answer.
Candidates are generated against the live IANA root zone, all 1,438 of them, rather than someone's list of thirty cute endings. Ranking pushes short, pronounceable, name-preserving results to the top — it ranks, it does not judge. No arithmetic knows that holl.day reads as "holiday". That call is yours.
