I see nothing strange in the below.  Google use the akamai network to
load balance their DNS and Web traffic.

The whois 66.102.7.99 is showing that it belongs to google.  The whois
google-2 is defaulting to google-2.com  This has nothing to do with the
original name of google, it would appear.  And you have pulled this from
the NetName on the IP allocators database.  A NetName and domain name
are not the same.  Which it appears you have tried to show?
