In Apache terms, this is the same as the hostname you put in the browser in order to connect to a given VirtualHost. EG: "www.example.com" If you want two different hostnames, you generally need two different certificates. Similarly, you will need a unique IP:port combination for each Virtual Host, since the ServerName variable isn't seen by Apache until after the SSL handshake. There are exceptions to this: Wildcard certificates (for "*.example.com") and "SNI" are two.
