Website purpose: An interest based social media for creators
Domain:
- Comons.com (Inspired from the idea of “Common Interest” and “Commons”)
- Blackish.com (Does it feels like black people community? No offence)
- Swolk.com (Made up word, with short letter domain name)
In my opinion:
All that said, Dribbble turned into a huge community despite being a misspelling of dribble. So anything is possible.
Thanks for your opinion, for me, I would choose blackish because it is easy to remember and chances of misspelling is low. Yeah you’re right, there is a TV show with that name too when I googling the word blackish. Do you think it’s still fine to go with this? I feel it’s more brandable than the rest, if I’m growing to other sectors, it doesn’t feel weird. The 3rd one “Swolk” also get autocorrected by google as well.
All of them
Good to know, but can only pick one for the site 😌

that's a bit vague
Blackish - not only likely to get cease-and-desist letter from TV show but offend a major demographic (speaking as a white Aussie, pretty sure @csallen is vastly more qualified than me to comment!).
Until this thread, I blushingly confess, had not noticed that dribbble.com was mis-spelled!
I like made-up names like, uhh Touchgram which relate more to the site or app content.
I always check stuff in the Urban Dictionary - Swolk seems fairly innocuous.
How about riffing off your one-line description? CreatorInt.com is free
Yes, #2 sounds like it's associated with the show and is a black community.
Yeah that’s right. If you’re not knowing the TV show at first, what would you think about the name? I can only imagine it’s a colour before knowing there is a TV show.
I'm not your target audience, so I can't answer that.
Blackish means something else man, even before the show. Id steer clear of it.
I think Swolk is your best bet or find a creative name that describes your site like creattte.com or the one mentioned in another comment.
Comons is the best one!
I like Swolk. I wouldn't worry about using Blackish but I think Swolk works better. I recently had the same problem. I was actually looking for a short-as-possible domain that was phonetic to my given name (Kerry) and found ceri.us (almost not possible to get shorter these days). But as you can see that is also very close to Siri (Apple) and Sirius (Music) and a stretch towards Certz.
But my use has nothing at all to do with any of those markets so I think I am sticking with it.
Swolk
Swolk, for creator folk.
I like Swolk the most. It feels unique.
