The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are taken from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a site, for example, and you input the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, enabling you to look at the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain name has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.
