Yes nowadays most of the startups have wired domain names, sometimes even confusing with pokemon characters http://evilbrainjono.net/pages/startup-or-pokemon.py

But when it comes to Google and searching isn't it true that awkward domain names will not get better search results?

No, I don't think so. Google is clever enough to recognize your title tag along with your domain name. Of course it is little harder to be the first result for a search, but that's because new domains tend to be that way. And if you make enough money you can always buy the .com counterparts.
