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.
layer, fold
Tiny CCV — short, distinctive. Ply + anything (Plyable, Plyform).
e.g. Plywood · Ply
Old French root
Deep, you, communal
U is communal — Uber, YouTube, Yum!. Also reads as 'you' in product brands (Unsplash, Udemy).
e.g. Uber · YouTube · Udemy · Unilever · Unsplash

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
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
Young, yes, asymmetric
Y is i-mutation. Lyft from lift, Bumble carries no Y but Tumblr drops the E. Y as a brand starter is rarer — usually used as a final mutation. YouTube uses Y as 'you'.
e.g. YouTube · Yelp · Yahoo! · Yeezy · Spotify (suffix)

Pairs plyuglifyjs with classical suffixes (-ex, -ius, -ium, -on), morphemes from the bank (ver-, lex-, pro-), and vowel mutations — then bloom-checks every candidate against the live .com zone file. Up to 400 candidates per click; only the available ones land here.

First-letter feeling
P-onset: Punchy, popping, percussive
P pops. Plays well with concrete object names — Pepsi, Pixar, PowerBook, Pentium. Lexicon canonical: PowerBook = compound, Pentium = morpheme + suffix.
Examples: Pepsi · Pixar · PowerBook · Pentium · Polaroid · Pinterest

How we check. Step 1 (client-side): POST /api/check
with plyuglifyjs.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=plyuglifyjs.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.
