thanks for this. im going to be handling multiple domains, so is it
possible
to do this rewrite without hardcoding?

rewrite ^.* http://aaa.com$uri;

for ex somthing like
rewrite ^.* http://$maindomain$uri;

did you mean:
NNN.somedomain.tld => somedomain.tld
for any somedomain.tld?

here it is
server {
listen 80;
server_name ~(.).([^.]).([^.])$;
set $domain $2.$3;
rewrite ^. http://$domain$request_uri permanent;
}

make sure that you have the server_name set on nginx or it’ll redirect
to .

this will catch all anydomain.tld
server {
listen 80;
server_name ~[^.].[^.];
return 403;
}

without this block, the redirection will go like this:
NNN.abcd.com => abcd.com => . (dot)

with this it’ll access correct site instead (stop at abcd.com)

is it possible to do this with just one server block for multiple
domains:
for ex:
server {
listen 80;
server_name .abcd.com .efgh.com .ijkl.com
…
}

You need something like

server {
server_name XXX.aaa.com/bbb;
listen 80;
…
rewrite ^ AAA | American Automobile Association? permanent;
}

create separate server block for each domain name

server {
listen 80;
server_name abcd.com;
…
}

which will be used when nginx detects the domain as abcd.com

without this block, the redirection will go like this:
NNN.abcd.com => abcd.com => . (dot)

with this it’ll access correct site instead (stop at abcd.com)

catch whatever that matches such pattern (asd.com, fghqwe.net,
zxclkj.org, asdf.ghjk, etc) and return 403 (in this example)

without this block, the previous server_name
(~(.).([^.]).([^.]*)$;) will catch this pattern and redirect to
‘.’
