UPDATE - There seems to be some questions about whether you have to own the domain to create sub domains. I found this for you all to peruse, and interpret:

IF I OWN A DOMAIN, DO I OWN ALL OF IT'S SUBDOMAINS?

"Yes, you own and control the entire namespace below the domain you purchase, because DNS is hierarchical. Creating mail.example.com and blog.example.com is just a matter of adding entries to the DNS zone that you control.

Since you asked about the name. domain, I'll address that specifically: You cited its eligibility requirements and have confused this with domain control. If you aren't eligible to have the domain to begin with, then the point is moot."

That seems clear enough. You have to own the root domain.

That’s the way I read it too.
