User blog comment:K6ka/URL change to "fandom.com"—what this means for us/@comment-4568327-20181025170532/@comment-1285070-20181103095650

What would have been ridiculous would have been to change the name to FANDOM without changing the domain of their websites. The site name and the domain need to be consistent.

As for changing to FANDOM from the beginning is another subject that has been addressed many times by the Staff.
