Some alternative names for ProductHunt include: tnuhtcudorp.com, predocthent.com, pradochint.com and if these don't suffice there is always pxovuhxvumn.com... luckily producthunt.com was available
@acondurache The replace function obviously works less well for more complicated words. I mean, how many possibilities is there to turn "producthunt" to a intelligent name by simply replacing the vowels or consonants at a time? Naturally, not all suggestions will make sense. And I didn't intend to make it so at first. Its purpose is to give you ideas. If there's even one word that lights up your thoughts in a way where you can say, "Hey, I can really make something out of this", then I believe it has fulfilled its function quite well, at least as far as I am concerned.
I attempted to check availability for producthunt.com, and it came out unavailable. I can't say what happened in your instance, but I will look into any possible bugs with the nameserver/whois check. Thanks for feedback!
@dbounds NameMesh is pretty good too, decent spread of functional-to-creative options, and gives real-time availability that's generally accurate: http://www.namemesh.com
also domainr: https://domainr.com
