Domain check
This usually takes about 2 seconds. RDAP catches the case where a domain is registered but currently has no nameservers (expired-redemption, parked, just-registered).
Every phonic in the name carries weight. Here's what each segment does — read left to right.
deep blue, sky-blue
Lexicon Branding case study — Placek cites the client's initial reaction was 'this is a dumb name'. Premium colour-as-name, ZHU consonant gives distinctive sound.
e.g. Azure (Microsoft)
Persian (via Arabic, Latin, French) root
Smooth, frictional, friendly
F flows. Less attention-grabbing than B or K, but warm. Facebook, FedEx, Figma — F can either soften the front (Figma) or pair with an explosive ending (FedEx).
e.g. Facebook · Figma · FedEx · Ford · Flickr
Confident, open, expansive
A opens the mouth wide. Brands starting with A feel approachable and confident — Amazon, Apple, Asana, Adobe, Atlassian. The open vowel makes a name feel inclusive and platform-like.
e.g. Amazon · Apple · Asana · Adobe · Atlassian

Small, precise, individual
I is the smallest character on the keyboard. Used for personal/lightweight brands (Instagram, iPhone). Apple's i-prefix is the modern naming canon. Front-vowel I makes things feel sharp and small.
e.g. iPhone · Instagram · Intel · Imgur
Rolling, robust, ready
R conveys motion and roll. Less smooth than L (English R is more forceful). Used for action brands (Rivian, Roku, Reddit, Ralph Lauren). R also doubles as a sci-fi register (Robocop, R2D2).
e.g. Rivian · Roku · Reddit · Ralph Lauren · Revolut

How we check. Step 1 (client-side): POST /api/check
with azurefafnir.com. The function hashes the SLD against our bloom
filter (built daily from the .com zone). Step 2 (only if step 1 said
"not in zone"): GET /api/rdap?domain=azurefafnir.com which HEADs
VeriSign's RDAP endpoint to confirm whether the domain is held at the
registry without active nameservers. Neither step logs your query.
