There are two parts to the answer. Domain registration is usually just
dddddd.com. If you are running your own DNS you can add the subdomain to 
your DNS records. If you want apache to point everything to the same exact 
virutal host, then configure that into httpd.conf 
<VirtualHost sub.dddddd.com dddddd.com charlie.dddddd.com>
will answer all three as if they are the same sub.domain. 
If you want apache to treat these as seperate domains you will need 
seperate <VirtualHost> </VirtualHost> sections pointing to different 
directories.
