The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the site (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are taken from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a site, for example, and you type in the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the website is obtained, so that you can view the content from the proper location. Normally a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is simply visual.
