Domain Name Generator
Generate domain name ideas from your keyword - free, no signup.
This generates ideas only - it doesn't check whether a domain is actually registered. Checking that would mean sending your keyword to an outside lookup service, which this site never does; confirm availability with a domain registrar before you commit to one.
What this tool does
Type your keyword or business name, choose which extensions to try, and get a list of domain variations: your keyword plain, with common prefixes like 'get' or 'try', and with suffixes like 'ly' or 'hub', across the extensions you picked. This generates ideas to try against a domain registrar - it doesn't check registration status itself, since that would mean sending your keyword to an outside lookup service, which this site deliberately never does for anything.
Generates domain name variations from your keyword: the plain keyword, prefixed (get/try/use/my/go) and suffixed (ly/hq/app/hub/io) versions.
Combines each variation with your chosen extensions (.com, .io, .co, .app, .dev, .net) instantly as you type.
Keeps every part of the process on your device - nothing about your keyword or business idea is sent anywhere.
Updates the results list live as you type or toggle an extension, so you can iterate on a keyword without pressing generate repeatedly.
Caps results at 8 name variations per keyword, times however many extensions you've selected, so the list stays scannable rather than overwhelming.
How to use it
- Type your keyword or business name.
- Choose which domain extensions you want to see.
- Copy the list and check your favourites with a domain registrar.
Why use this name generator
Short ideas for domain names combine your keyword with common prefixes, suffixes and extensions. Seeing them together speeds up brainstorming before you search registrars.
Why we built it
We built the domain name generator to keep your keyword on your own device, with no lookup service involved. Brainstorm names with the business name generator and the brand name generator.
Handy alongside this: the Robot Name Generator.
Who this tool is for
- Website and blog owners brainstorming domains
- Founders naming a startup
- Freelancers launching a portfolio
When to use it
- Choosing a domain for a business or project.
- Finding variations of a keyword.
- Comparing extensions.
- Preparing a list to check.
Why there's no live availability check
Checking real registration status needs an outside lookup - which this site doesn't do, for anything, ever.
Every tool on this site runs entirely in your browser with zero network calls of any kind - not to our own servers, and not to anyone else's. Checking whether a domain is actually registered would require sending your keyword to an external DNS or registrar lookup service, which is a real trade-off: a genuinely useful feature, but one that would mean your business idea leaves your browser before you've even decided whether to register it. This site's answer is to keep that boundary absolute rather than make an exception for one convenient feature, and simply generate strong candidate ideas for you to check yourself with a registrar of your choice.
How the variations are built
A fixed set of prefixes and suffixes applied to your keyword, not a creative rename.
Your keyword is first slugified - lowercased, with anything that isn't a letter or number stripped out - then combined with a small fixed list of prefixes (get, try, use, my, go) and suffixes (ly, hq, app, hub, io), plus the plain keyword itself, for up to 8 name variations. Each variation is then paired with every extension you've selected. This is deliberately simple and predictable rather than a creative brainstorming tool: it's built to quickly surface the familiar 'get-word' or 'word-ly' domain patterns you'd otherwise have to type out and combine by hand, one extension at a time.
What you give it, and what you get back
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Controls | A keyword and the extensions to try. |
| Output | Domain ideas with prefixes and suffixes. |
| Shortlist | Pin names you like; a seed reproduces the same list. |
Issues you may run into
| What you see | Why it happens | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| A domain is already registered | Availability is not checked. | Check with a registrar. |
| A name already exists | Generated names can coincide with real people, brands or characters. | Search for it before using it for anything public or commercial. |
| The same names come back | The word or syllable pool is finite, or a seed is set. | Clear the seed, change the options or generate a larger batch. |
Assumptions and limitations
- This does not check whether a domain is actually registered or available - it generates ideas only. Check your favourites with a domain registrar before committing to one.
- Extension and prefix/suffix variations are generated algorithmically from your keyword; it doesn't suggest entirely different names.
Frequently asked questions
How do I generate domain name ideas online for free?
Type your keyword, choose which extensions you want, and variations appear instantly - prefixed, suffixed, and combined with each extension.
Does this check if a domain is available?
No - checking real registration status would mean sending your keyword to an outside lookup service, which this site never does for any tool. Generate your ideas here, then check your favourites with a domain registrar.
What extensions can I try?
.com, .io, .co, .app, .dev and .net - choose any combination.
Does this register the domain for me?
No - this only generates ideas. You'd register a domain you like through a domain registrar separately.
Is my keyword uploaded anywhere?
No. Every variation is generated entirely in your browser - nothing about your keyword or business idea is ever sent anywhere.
Why does the list only show 8 name variations?
That cap keeps the list scannable - each of the 8 is then combined with every extension you've selected, so turning on more extensions grows the list without needing more base variations.
Can I use my own custom prefixes or suffixes?
Not currently - the prefix and suffix lists are fixed. You can still generate multiple keywords one after another to explore more variations manually.
