http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpCoreModule#variables

$host

This variable is equal to line Host in the header of request or
name of the server processing the request if the Host header is
not available.

[Note that under some conditions you may want to log $http_host
instead, which is empty if there is no Host header in request.]

You can use $host variable
