Bulk Domain Name Checker & Domain Name Generator — DNS Lister
Generate and check thousands of name ideas in one search, not one at a time. Built for founders, developers and domainers.
Check bulk domain name availability against DNS and the registry itself. We're not a registrar — nothing to upsell.
Stop brainstorming one name at a time. Cross two word lists and check thousands of names in one search.

1. Build Word Lists
Type words in — or, with Premium, paste a batch or upload your own .txt/.csv files. Use your custom lists, or the curated lists already shared globally — most sites don't let you bring your own vocabulary at all. (More below.)
2. Generate candidates
Combine two lists, expand with a thesaurus, mangle a word into leetspeak, swap letters, add prefixes — 14 ways to turn words into domain ideas.
3. Check availability
Checks run on our servers and in your browser at the same time — most tools do one or the other, which puts every user in a single queue behind a single rate limit. Peak measured throughput: ~30,000 lookups in five minutes. Real answers in seconds, not a guess.
Domain Name Generator Flagship
Pick a left-side word list and a right-side word list — every word from one combined with every word from the other becomes a domain candidate. Combine "blue"/"sky"/"media"-style words into thousands of options across every TLD you choose, checked all at once.
Most domain generators only take a single list of words. The Builder crosses two — and a three-list mode, with per-position prefix & suffix options, is in progress.
See a free Builder exampleBring your own word lists
2,659 shared word lists already on the site, ready to combine with your own.
Every generator on this page runs on word lists you control — not a fixed dictionary someone else picked. Searching for a client in a niche industry? Upload their vocabulary and every result is on-brand.
- Create lists your way — type words in one at a time, or (Premium) paste a whole batch or upload a .txt or .csv file and the importer handles the cleanup: de-duplication, lowercasing, and skipping anything that can't appear in a domain name.
- Manage them like data — every list gets an A–Z letter index, per-letter word counts, search and filters, and a one-click way to send any list straight into the Builder or any tool.
- Mix private and shared — your lists stay yours; globally shared lists (curated by topic) are ready to combine with them the moment you register.
- Automate it — power users can import lists through the REST API, straight from a URL or a script.
23 tools for finding a domain
Score a Word
Already have a name in mind? Type it in and see how it scores right now — checked live against the top TLDs, with the points broken down so you can see exactly why.
See a free Score a Word exampleTLD Sweep
Set on one name and want it somewhere? Check that word against an entire family of extensions in one pass instead of ticking boxes one at a time.
See a free TLD Sweep exampleAnagram Lookup
Type a jumble of letters and see the real words they spell — lwarc is crawl — each one a click away from a domain check.
See a free Anagram Lookup exampleWord Pairs (beta)
Hand-picked word pairs to spark a name — biscuit + bandana, pixel + pine. Pick a theme, shuffle, and check any pair in one click.
See a free Word Pairs (beta) exampleDomain Hacks
Names where the extension (TLD) finishes the word: delicio.us, app.ly.
See a free Domain Hacks exampleNumeric Domains
All-digit names like 888888.xyz, with the cheap .xyz numeric price where it applies.
See a free Numeric Domains exampleWordmark Preview
See a name in ten type styles and five colors, like a logo would show it.
See a free Wordmark Preview exampleWord Blends
Melt two words into one name: smoke + fog = smog, breakfast + lunch = brunch.
See a free Word Blends exampleLorem Ipsum Generator
Latin-sounding names built from lorem ipsum words, easiest to say first.
See a free Lorem Ipsum Generator exampleBulk Domain Check
Already have a shortlist? Paste it in and check every name across as many TLDs as you want, all in one pass — the verification step at the end of any brainstorm.
See a free Bulk Domain Check exampleLetter Count Search
Browse every possible combination at a fixed length (3-6 letters). Short domains are scarce and valuable — this is how you methodically hunt for what's left.
See a free Letter Count Search examplePronounceable Names Recommended
Invented, speakable brand names in the "Hulu" / "Zara" mold — fresh consonant-vowel-pattern candidates generated on demand, not real words at all.
See a free Pronounceable Names examplePronounceable + Starting Word
Pick a starting word and get made-up, easy-to-say endings for it: blue gives bluekelo, bluevarn, bluetiko and thousands more.
See a free Pronounceable + Starting Word exampleSubset Combinations Recommended
Like Word Combinations, but you pick how many of your keywords go into each name — every 2-of-5 or 3-of-5 arrangement, not just all of them at once.
See a free Subset Combinations exampleWord Mangle
Your ideal domain is taken — get stylized variants ("to"→"2", "for"→"4", vowel-dropped "flickr"-style names) ranked by how close they stay to the original.
See a free Word Mangle exampleCharacter Swap
Systematically swap one letter at a time to find near-miss variants of a word — also useful for auditing which lookalike/typo domains of your own brand exist.
See a free Character Swap exampleDomain Typos
Generate the common keyboard mistakes real people make typing your domain — adjacent-key slips, transpositions, dropped letters, doubled letters.
See a free Domain Typos exampleHyphenated Domains
Got a multi-word phrase where the compact version is taken? See every hyphenation arrangement at once, sorted from fewest hyphens to most.
See a free Hyphenated Domains exampleDomain Thesaurus
Swap a word for its synonyms instead of mangling its spelling — keep the meaning, find a name that's actually available. Often the smartest first move.
See a free Domain Thesaurus exampleWord Combinations
Have a handful of keywords but no fixed order? Generate every permutation — "blueskymedia", "skymediablue", and everything between — and check them all.
See a free Word Combinations exampleAcronym Maker Recommended
Type your club or org name and get every short form that still reads as it — the plain acronym, plus hra / hrvaa / hoodrva-style fallbacks for when the obvious one is taken.
See a free Acronym Maker examplePrepend / Append
The "Get[X]" / "[X]HQ" trick, automated: add curated Tech, Startup, Business, Premium, or Cool-themed words before or after your core word.
See a free Prepend / Append examplePattern Search
Starts-with, ends-with, contains, length range, wildcard patterns — combine every constraint in one query instead of juggling separate tools.
See a free Pattern Search exampleWhy this instead of the big sites?
Most domain-search sites route every lookup through a
third party that rate-limits you after a few pages —
exactly when a bulk check or a big letter-search gets
useful. This app asks the registries themselves, with no
middleman in between, and paces its own requests so a
big search slows down at worst rather than stopping.
No "coming soon" placeholders: every feature on this
page is real, working code.
Instant results for names we've already checked.
When a saved answer is still fresh, you get it straight
away instead of waiting on a new lookup. Want a clean
slate? Tick Re-check everything and we'll ignore
saved answers and ask the registries again.
Your searches are yours
Nothing you search is published, sold, or shown to another user unless you press Share. We don't register domains, so we have nothing to gain from the names you find.
Searching for names for a company you haven't launched yet is exactly when this matters. Two things are public on purpose, and we'd rather say so than let you find out later: a search you press Share on gets a public link (that's the point of the button — and it publishes the recipe too: the search name and which word lists it used), and the globally shared Word Lists lists are public by design. Your own lists, and every search you don't share, are neither.
