Noel is giving you direct answer to the way you put the question, and I suspect, as others before me have, that you don't mean the question the way you are expressing it. You would be better served saying why you want to do this, because you are really going to a lot of this and that over something that seems to be really unimportant. What you want to do probably can be done, if you state what the real objective is. Of course, making "whatever" into a DNS name is not your goal, we can surmise.
