Re-checked at the .com registry · November 14, 2026

Available .com domains, checked at the registry

The .coms people try first are gone: every three-letter name, all but 3 four-letter ones, every one of the 25,000 most common English words. We look names up in bulk at the registry and keep what is left: 113,575 .coms in four lists. These 48 are the best of them, checked again today.

Names for your kind of business

For 24 kinds of business, we joined the words of the trade to plain brand words and looked every name up at the .com registry on November 4 and November 5, 2026. Each page lists the free ones, with our picks first.

Every list of free .coms

Each list is every free name of its kind we found, filterable, with the full results to download (CC BY 4.0). The counts are the day of each check; names registered since are taken off the lists as we find them.

The full numbers are in the study are all 3, 4 and 5-letter .com domains taken? Once a free name is on a list it can go fast: see how fast free domain names get taken. If a short name matters more than .com, see four-letter names in .io, .ai, .app and .dev, three-letter names in .fm, .gg and .sh and one-word .ai domains.

Questions

Are there any good .com domains left?
Yes, but not the ones people try first. Every three-letter .com is registered, all but 3 of the 456,976 four-letter ones, and every one of the 25,000 most common English words. What is left is two words joined in a way nobody has used yet, short made-up names that sound like a brand, and rare words. We keep lists of 113,575 such .coms, each checked at the registry, and the names on this page were checked again on November 14, 2026.
Which .com domains are available right now?
On November 14, 2026 these were all unregistered: duskink.com, dawnpen.com, sagejar.com, snuglamp.com, hilato.com, berayo.com, nonalo.com. Every name on this page links to a live check with the price and a link to register, because names do get taken: check one before you count on it.
How quickly do available .com names get taken?
Faster than you might expect once a name is on a public list. Of 261 .coms from our lists that were checked through this site between October 31, 2026 and November 2, 2026, 6 were registered within 10 hours of being checked, 3 of them within about an hour, the fastest 8 minutes after the check. We take a name off our lists once we find it registered, and every one we found is on our page on how fast free domain names get taken.
How much does an available .com cost?
The normal .com price. .com has no premium names set by the registry, so a name nobody has registered costs the same as any other new .com at a given registrar: on November 2, 2026 our live check showed $12.08 for the first year at Namecheap, and Name.com renews a .com at $19.99 a year. Renewal prices are usually higher than the first year, so compare both. A name someone has registered can still be bought from its owner, usually for far more.
Is it better to pick a different extension than .com?
Sometimes. If the short name you want is gone as .com, the same name is often free in .io, .ai, .app or .dev, at a higher yearly price. A .com is what people type when they only heard the name, so a two-word .com can beat a one-word name in another extension. Say both to someone and ask them to type it.

How the names were checked

Each list comes from a study that looked up every name of its kind at the .com registry’s own nameservers, and every name without nameservers in the registry’s registration record, since a registered name can be on hold without DNS. The names on this page were looked up both ways again on November 14, 2026. A name that was registered and has since expired counts as free. Nothing here is for sale by us: we do not own these names, and registering one costs the registrar’s normal price.
