Stuck For a Domain Name? Dot-o-mator to the Rescue!
You've got enough to worry about with your new Web 2.0 startup without having to come up with a clever name - never mind a matching domain name that's actually available.
Well, why not take advantage of Dot-o-mator, a crafty little web app that reaches deep into its dictionary and outputs a list of possible domains that would make Dr. Seuss proud.
Of course, coming up with a combination is only half the battle. You've got to somehow find one that hasn't been snatched up by some underhanded domain prospector. Dot-o-mator makes that easy, too, giving you one-click access to a multi-name availability check.
It's a great brainstorming tool, and can be a huge help in the struggle to brand your new web venture. We like it for the possibility of setting up private Gmail service on a domain like "skablab.com."

This looks really great, though i would have my concerns as to how it checks for availability (given that some registrars are playing domain squatting).
Skalabs? lol, well that one came through using the fake name generator from last time... (How does that one get that the name is available right away?)

I prefer http://www.bustaname.com/ more.
Nicer interface

It took me several tries just to get BustAName to load fully, and when it did my keywords never turned up any matches. I'm still waiting, as a matter of fact. I'll leave it till morning, but by then someone will have snatched the domains it finds me anyway.

Check out http://www.namecombo.com It's a really cool domain name generator and company name generator similar to Dotomator but with more word lists and the ability to create domain names with 1-4 words. You can find available domain names from a huge selection of word lists. You can customize lists with your own words which lets you come up with literally thousands of possible domain names incorporating your keywords if you wish. It offers bulk domain name lookup and domain registration. There is also both a three word version and four word version which are great for keyword driven domain name variations.
