Check a name

One command, straight against the registry — no account, no page to load.

Fills the command and the registrar links below in with your own name. The page is static — nothing is looked up here, and nothing you type leaves the browser.

ds mybrand --tld mma

Add --where for the registrars and the registry's rules, --registry for the server that answered, or --all-info for everything at once.

What it costs

No registrar in the price table bundled with ds quotes .mma, so the CLI prints no figure beside it — one of 927 such TLDs. That is a gap in the table as often as it is a TLD nobody sells. See Prices for supplying your own table with --pricing-file.

Who can register

No eligibility rule is on file for .mma, which is not the same as a promise that it is open: the list is hand-maintained and covers the restricted TLDs a registrar is likely to offer you. Check the registry's own page before counting on a name. 81 TLDs do carry a rule — see Who can register.

How ds answers for it

RDAP first, WHOIS second — the same order for every TLD. .mma has both, so RDAP answers and WHOIS is the fallback if it does not.

RDAP
https://rdap.nic.mmaFrom IANA's bootstrap, refreshed when this page was built. The lookup is https://rdap.nic.mma/domain/mybrand.mma — a 404 means the name is free.
WHOIS
whois.nic.mmaQueried on port 43, from the bundled whois.json. The name is called free when the reply contains not found — text matching, which is why RDAP is preferred where it exists.

ds mybrand --tld mma --registry prints whichever of these answered. If a bundled WHOIS host has gone stale, IANA is asked who serves .mma today. See Accuracy notes.

The registry

From IANA's delegation record for .mma. .mma is a generic TLD.

Registry site
www.mma.frWhere the registry documents .mma — its rules, its accredited registrars, and any launch phases. Not a shop: registries sell wholesale to registrars, not to you.
Published services
rdap.nic.mma · whois.nic.mmaWhat the registry itself tells IANA it runs. They agree with what ds asks.
Name servers
d.nic.frf.ext.nic.frg.ext.nic.frThe 3 authoritative servers for the .mma zone — what the root delegates to. Nothing ds queries directly; they are what makes a registered name resolve.

What it is

Derived from the root zone and ICANN's registry list — each one is a fact with a source.

  • generic IANA Root Zone Database types it "generic"
  • new-gtld ICANN delegated it on or after 2013-10-23, when the 2013 round opened — see delegated

What it is for

Our reading, not a fact — nothing in the root zone says what a TLD means. Hand-maintained in tld-categories.json.

  • Sport Sports, and the things people do outdoors.

In the root zone

The delegation itself, read out of the root zone — serial 2026090900, on 2026-09-09. The registry section above is IANA's record of what .mma was delegated to; this is what the root actually answers with when a resolver asks it where .mma lives.

Delegated to
  • d.nic.fr194.0.9.12001:678:c::1
  • f.ext.nic.fr194.146.106.462001:67c:1010:11::53
  • g.ext.nic.fr194.0.36.12001:678:4c::1
The 3 name servers the root hands out for .mma, with the glue addresses that come with them — every one of them answers over IPv6. None of this is what ds queries: these servers know which names exist, not who registered them.
DNSSEC
Signed — 1 DS record in the root
  • key 24045ECDSA P-256/SHA-256 · SHA-256CDB760636E956607DF832CE56C98C841B453FFC3954BE5D19C8886A1FEED4973
Each one is a fingerprint of .mma's own signing key, published by the root and signed with the root's key — which is how a resolver that trusts only one key can prove an answer under .mma came from its registry and was not tampered with in transit. It says nothing about who owns a name or whether one is free.

Ask the root yourself — no registry involved, and the same records this section was built from: dig +norec @a.root-servers.net mma. NS and dig +norec @a.root-servers.net mma. DS.
