You should definitely reserve that name! Maybe through our site? :)

I agree with not overwhelming the user. Though I think it depends on how your users are individually inspired to find the right domain name. Looking at competitor sites, some allow you to wade through tons of results, others just show you a couple.

We didn't put a lot into the algorithm, so our results are mostly dependent on the thesaurus we are using. I would guess that providing a good results algorithm is definitely the best way to go. Good luck gents!

One interesting approach is what nxDom.com does under their 'advanced options' section. They allow users to create their own custom algorithm for things they care about.

Wow - they get the minimalism thing, alright. domain-atrix is actually a pretty good result for domain - and I am not sure how they are doing that.

It's interesting, though strangely the site is a bit half-baked. Why get so far and then peter out at the testing and execution?
