ICANN WHOIS

For hostname or domain registration, do not use sites to check availability, except ICANN. Some of these sites buy that name simply because you only searched for its availability.

"WHOIS isn't an acronym, though it may look like one. In fact, it is the system that asks the question, who is responsible for a domain name or an IP address?"
