Can you own this name?
One search — the domain (live registry truth), the social handles, and what the name is worth. No cached data, no sales funnel.

Is a specific name free? Single domain check, up to 500 at once in the bulk checker, or handles on 8 platforms with the social checker.

The name is taken — now what? WHOIS shows who holds it, expiry shows when it might drop, appraisal shows what it is worth, grounded in real sales.
Appraisal →The truth about a name, not a sales pitch
Every registrar's search box has a job: sell you something. Every cached "name checker" has a flaw: it answers from a database that was true last week. Namizy exists for one reason — to tell you the registry's live truth about a name at the second you ask, across everything that makes a name ownable: the domain, the social handles, and the price reality. We are not a registrar. When you register a name through a partner link we earn a commission, but the answer you get is the same either way.
One search instead of five tabs
Checking a brand by hand means a domain tool, a social username checker, a valuation site and a lot of guessing. The search above runs the whole pass: the domain across the startup TLDs (.com weighted heaviest, then .io, .ai, .co, .app, .net), the handle on 8 social platforms, and a brandability read on the name itself — condensed into one BrandScore you can compare across candidates. Want the deep-dive on one dimension? Every result links into the dedicated tool.
Live registry data is the whole point
Domain answers come from each registry's authoritative RDAP endpoint — Verisign for .com/.net, PIR for .org, Google Registry for .dev/.app — the same source registrars themselves use. That is why a name can read "taken" here while a stale checker still shows it free. Valuations are anchored in 348,000 recorded domain sales and always show their factors and sample size. Prices on register links are verified monthly on the registrars' own sites and dated. Honest data, shown with its provenance — that is the product.
Frequently asked questions
What does "own the name" mean here?
Owning a modern brand name means holding the domain on the extensions that matter, the matching social handles, and knowing the name's market value before you commit. Namizy checks all of it in one pass and condenses it into a single 0–100 BrandScore.
How is this different from other name checkers?
Three ways. Truth: domains are checked against each registry's authoritative RDAP server at the moment you search, while most checkers read cached databases that report stale results. Breadth: domains, social handles and valuation live in one search instead of five tabs. Neutrality: Namizy is not a registrar — nothing here is designed to push you into a sales funnel.
Is the valuation real or a marketing number?
It is anchored in a table distilled from 348,000 recorded domain sales: comparable-sales medians by extension, length and word type, adjusted for the name's quality signals. Every estimate shows its factors and how many real sales back it — transparent, not a black box.
Do I need an account?
No. Every tool — brand check, domain checker, bulk checker, generators, WHOIS, expiry, appraisal — is free with no signup. Namizy is supported by affiliate commissions if you choose to register a name through a partner link, at no extra cost to you.
