No like the name of the record
. Run it through
https://dnschecker.org/
and see if the resolves
.
DNS Checker
DNS Checker - DNS Check Propagation Tool

. DNS Checker provides name server propagation check instantly
. Changed nameservers so do a DNS lookup and check if DNS and nameservers have propagated
