The one who gives you internet access, so indeed your provider

That's possible. But then your server isn't avaiable when you login
ofcourse.
There are providers who give static ip adresses, such as demon
(www.demon.nl) or
others at an extra fee.

To register a name you have to go to the internic (for .com, .net, .org
domains) or to
a local dns registry (for Belgium that is www.dns.be) more info about
this on www.alldomains.com

Then you need a DNS server, this is someone who is listed in the
database of the internic/dns.be/... and who gets all the requests for
*.philippe.com or .whatever you have, and directs them to your ip
adress.

It IS possible with a dynamic dns (www.ml.org) but I wouldn't recommend
it.

Free DNS servers exist, look at www.eu.org, where you also can get FREE
domain names such as philippe.be.EU.org.

Maybe wait 'till some cable thing comes up, leased lines are REALLY
expensive
