Each word was joined to every word on the other side, so its share of registered names says how hard it is to build a free .com around it. Every name ending in house, home, works, shop, market, studio, labs, lab, hub, cloud, group, mail, media, design, club, capital, health or care is registered, and so is every name starting with blue, red, golden, silver, black, super, big or cloud. The endings people are told to add when a name is taken are the most used up of all.

We picked 243 plain, positive English words that brand names often start with (colors, qualities, nature, animals, materials, food, times of day) and 289 they often end with (places, things, nature, animals, crafts and ideas), all of 3 to 8 letters and none of them a famous brand. Every first word was joined to every second word, leaving out a word joined to itself, names with three letters in a row, and joins that spell an offensive word across the seam: 69,976 names. On November 1, 2026 each was looked up at the .com registry’s own nameservers, and each without nameservers in the registry’s registration record, since a registered name can be on hold without DNS: 532 were registered that way and are left out. A name that was registered and has since expired counts as free. Of 100 free names we picked at random and checked at Name.com, 100 sold at the normal .com price (renewing at $19.99 a year there).
“Best first” means made of the words with the highest share of registered names, shorter names first: a free name built from words the market uses most. The list is free to reuse under CC BY 4.0. For single words, see one-word .com domains you can still register; for short made-up names, see short domains you can still register; and for what to do when the name you want is taken, see what to do when a domain name is taken. Or let the finder suggest names for your idea and check them across extensions.
