    The thing is if it's a good domain name it's probably been taken already.

    In the past, when I was trying to find a domain name for one of my new projects, I'd sometimes spend hours searching for one. You can try Yahoo Small Business to see what is avaialble. Where it says Get a domain you can check domain name availability. Just spend some time trying different creative ideas, you may stumble onto something that sounds great and is still available: http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/

    If you are going to register a domain name for your forum then you have to tell the niche, specifications so that we would come with suggestions..

    Anyway, it should have a brand name which should be easy to remember this way you would get good popularity of your forum as well.

    First, you need to short list the category names you will create for "community forum" and once you found out the categories names then summaries few name which is related to created categories and content which will be shared on forum and then select the smallest name for the domain from short listed domain names​

    Name it after yourself if it's just a community forum. Or whatever community you're in.

    Just use a forwarder on your old site so it pushes everyone to the new one.

    A domain name for a website or forum is very important part, it should have brand name, it should be easy to remember and it should not be to long.

    You need to give time in researching the domain name, research domain names according to your preference then post here so that we would be able to vote which name is good..
