How do you say 'domain names' in UK?
I'm looking for alternative ways of saying domain names in UK. I have the feeling that domain name is quite American. Are there any synonym terms that sound more English - web address, internet domain, ... what else?

I wouldn't agree its an American term, it's used widely here in the UK too and most parts of Europe. Other forms depend on the context you use it in, such as host name, URL, etc, but domain name is quite an acceptable term to describe the... well domain name ;)

Yeah, we have our very own internet in quaint lil' ol' England. WORLD wide web--it's DOMAIN NAME!!

The internet is an American invention, therefore the Americans get to name things associated with it.
