Error on creating sub domains with Nginx

this is my first time working with Nginx, I am trying to create a sub-domain, but once I enter the sub-domain in the browser, I get the error This web page is not available :(, so I am here for you to help me, please

I have one configuration for mobile which is 

server {
    large_client_header_buffers 1 1K;

    listen       80;
    server_name  www.the-thing.mobi  the-thing.mobi;
    root   /home/c0pt/things/thingsMobile/www;

    location / {
     index index.html index.htm
     ...
    }
 }

and the other for web, which is the one not working

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  www.desktop.the-thing.mobi  desktop.the-thing.mobi;
    root   /home/c0pt/things/thingsWebApp/dist;

    location / {
     index index.html index.htm
     ...
    }
 }

if I enter www.the-thing.mobi which is the sub-domain for mobile, everything works, but if I enter www.desktop.the-thing.mobi, then the error message This web page is not available :( comes up.

So, what am I doing wrong ?

Try the config bellow 

server {
    large_client_header_buffers 1 1K;

    listen 80;
    server_name  "~^(?<subdomain>[^.]*)\.?the-thing.mobi$"  the-thing.mobi www.the-thing.mobi;


    location / {
     if($subdomain){
      root /home/c0pt/things/thingsWebApp/dist;  
     }
     if ($host = 'the-thing.mobi'|$host = 'www.the-thing.mobi') {
     root /home/c0pt/things/thingsMobile/www;  
     }
     index index.html index.htm
     ...
    }
 }
