This is something you can do with your DNS / Domain Name Host.
You choose in WordPress (WP-Admin > Settings > General ) if you want to use www.somename.com
or just somename.com
If you login in to your Domain Name Host (I use 123-reg) then look for Manage DNS CNAME / A / TXT records
You can see on this screen I have an @
and www
A Record which are both pointing to the same Destination IP Address.
The @
and the www
A records are your www.somename.com
or just somename.com
