You don't necessarily need a keyword in your domain name to rank well. A memorable, trustworthy, and brandable domain is often a better long-term choice. If a relevant keyword fits naturally into the domain, that's fine, but don't choose an awkward domain just because you think it will give you a major SEO advantage.

No, you do not need to include keywords in your domain name for direct SEO success.

A keyword-rich domain isn’t essential for SEO. Choose a memorable, trustworthy, and brandable domain instead.
