Woo/WP is a not the hosting provider, so whomever yall pay for your website hosting is the provider where you'd setup domain forwarding. May want to consider using the same provider to register the new domain, that way if you plan to move to shorter domain name, you can move website from long domain to new domain.
Thanks for the heads up on making sure its the same host. Though, I've asked and being told the host is Woo Commerce. That's the site option to buy the new domain thru as we've been searching for available options on their site. Am I understanding this wrong? TIA

Would ask whomever pays the bills for domain registration and webhosting.
Im not trying to confuse you or cause angst. My wife has a shopify shop hosted by them for them. Looking at minimizing costs as she doesnt use it really as much as initially. Ive spun up a WooComm site on my hosing platform for her to test and try. If she decides to go the Woo route, then I would transfer her domain from godaddy to my provider, then move the website from my dev one to her domain. Roundabout example but figured it may help my explanation
Domain name (registrar) + webhosting provider (webserver) + CMS (app on the server that runs your website)
