Instead of searching for the keyword, search for the actual name of your site or the base URL. If they come up you're not banned, just doing poorly in the results, like a lot of people lately who used to be well placed.

my domain is only 2 weeks old, and it never appeared by url or domain name

there must be a series of actions (tests) you can do to be sure if you are currently banned from google

Not getting too involved in this again as it gets silly. Only to say that if it's only 2 weeks old there's a FAR higher chance you're simply not listed especially if you've no backlinks yet on decent sites/pages.

VERY unlikely a 2 week old site is 'banned' and far more likely it's simply not yet indexed.
