    Unless they have changed Dreamhost does not offer private nameservers.

    If you go with a host that offers private nameservers you NS would be ns1.yourdomain.xxx

    It is pretty much impossible to have private nameservers on shared hosting environment!
    Thanks,

    No. Its impossible. You can do that by child nameservers. But unl;ess your web host directs those to your server, its impossible to use private nameservers.
