no snappy names for you, but I lease space from Hostica.com, they're
great.  Also they do DNS registration and admin for about $10 a year.=20
Another buck a year to park it there, and you can redirect to your IP.

I have a bunch of sites redirected via CNAME to dyndns.com, then use
their webhop service to point to my cable modem, running apache, php,
and mysql (apache virtual hosts are slick. Although my IP doesn't
change much, this setup allows for a dynamic IP, my home server has an
auto update feature that works with dyndns.  If you don't have a static
IP this is a good way to go.  Email me off line if you need
elaboration.

I also have used no-ip.com, it works too.  I've tried setting up dns
with granitecanyon.com, but I can't seem to get the registrar to stick,
so for the $0.14 US a month I just park them at Hostica.com.  I've also
used xname.com, it works too.  I think the best way to go is have
whoever has the tech reg on the dns to be the registrar, IMO, I have
found it's not worth going the free route just to save less than the
beer I throw down the drain every month, so I just leave them all at
hostica.com . . .
