thanks Chris ... so shall we go with the simplest thing that works :-)
i.e. somehost.some-domain  ?


Maybe include a few random characters in the top-level domain.
The list of TLDs has expanded so much in recent years, you never
know what might happen

This looks okay to me, at least until somehost.some-domain starts to be
resolved to some address :-)

I wonder: would something like

 "x-" + UUID.randomUUID().toString() + "-x.some-domain"

result in a syntactically valid address? If so it might
reduce the chances of collision…

The collision here is as a result of the top-level domain, so I’m not sure it is necessary to “randomize” the fully qualified domain name.
