It is not named after him, at least now: the tool is called Compiler Explorer.

The thing is that he originally served it from its domain so people use both interchangeably.

And it still is, right? Or is there also a Compiler Explorer domain?

It's on https://compiler-explorer.com/ too. But it's too long to type, and so many weblinks point at godbolt.org that I've long since accepted that while its name is definitely "Compiler Explorer", folks will call it "godbolt" and type that into their browser. It's shorter and frankly when life gifts you a surname like mine, why not accept it? :)
