question about domain names

so I have this website, semidevil.com. My wife, would like her own page to use for her personal things, school or work stuff.

Can I configure this somehow where I can give her her own domain name which will point directly to her page? She doesn't seem to like typing semidevil.com.

I know that the address bar will still probably be www.semidevil.com/wife's page' or whatever, but can she get her own name for her page?

Is that possible, or will she need to buy a new domain name?

ps. this is with cpanel.

If she wants anyone else to see it under some other domain name, she/you'll need to buy one. I'd recommend namecheap.com for registration -- 8.88/yr. If your host allows add-on domains, I'd definately recommend going this route.
OR... you could (probably) make her a subdomain under yours -- but it would still be whatever.semidevil.com.
OR... if it was only her, you could edit your hosts file and put something like: floweryname.com aa.bb.cc.dd (fill in your semidevil ip address). Then, every time she types in 'floweryname.com' she'd be directed to semidevl.com. (not really recommended)
