The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are taken from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for example, and you enter the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the site is retrieved, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Normally a domain name has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.
