    If this is a single domain name account (as opposed to a reseller account with WHM) just contact support. They will have to make the change for you.

    You're welcome - they should be able to get it done quickly, they have pretty responsive support.

    What is this? You bought a domain name, say from Godaddy and the domain name is mydomain.com. How can you change that? Have I gone mad? Or are you talking about something else?

      Yes, the OP will have to register a new domain name with a domain registrar, then notify the web hosting company of the new domain so they can *change* the web host settings to reflect the new domain.
