If price is not an object, I would recommend Gandi.net - absolutely no nonsense domain hosting ( I even received a free SSL certificate, though I don't know if that offer is still on.) . Another good option is Mediatemple, who are giving away $5 domains as long as you're with them (that's a really great deal). You can find HN archives on domain names here: http://remembersaurus.com/askhn.html#domain-names http://remembersaurus.com/askhn.html#domain-names http://www.gabrielweinberg.com/startupswiki/Ask_YC_Archive#toc34 http://www.gabrielweinberg.com/startupswiki/Ask_YC_Archive#t... NearlyFreeSpeech an NameCheap are great alternatives as well.
