Changing domain name on active site

    Is there any way to change a domain name on an active website without moving the site? I have a good site with a stupid name. I'd love to be able to not have to move the site because it's HUGE. 19,000+ pages and close to 500MB I think.

    I'm sure I could just forward the traffic from my old domain to the new one if I could get this done.

    Is there any way to do this?
