Duck it! Working on shorter domain names...we have dukgo, though that isn't that memorable. I hope to have something soon though.

I'd say get something that you can easily say, spell, and use as a verb.
bloip gibbit erdle jopple etc etc But rebranding does seem a big job to me.
It's amazingly motivating when you start seeing your startups name appearing as a verb on twitter searches :)

Rebranding is not too difficult if you don't get much traffic from organic search. It's a simple redirect and a notice on the page.
It's also not too difficult when you're small but gets more costly as time goes on. If DDG succeeds, the customer base it has now will be something like .00001% of it's users.
