Stop words in Domain names?

how do "stop words" affect the keywords in a domain name, esp when they are at the beginning? does google only query those words AFTER the stop word?

example: How-Do-You-Do.com

would the word "how" be ignored in this domain name?

Yes, if they are searching for "how do you find clocks", then yes, how becomes ignored. It's not a stop word while indexing, it is the search word that is the stop word. Follow?
