.name Domain Registration - .name is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) intended for the use of individuals' real names, nicknames, screen names, pseudonyms or other personal names. Domains can be registered on the second level (john.name) and the third level (john.doe.name). When a domain is registered on the third level (john.doe.name), the second level (doe.name in this case) is shared, and may not be registered. When the .name domain was first launched, only third level registrations (and forwarded e-mail addresses) were available; it was only later, in January 2004, that second level registrations were made available as well. When a domain is registered on the second level (doe.name), third level domains or e-mail addresses under this second level (john.doe.name and jane@doe.name) are associated with the second level domain, and may not be registered with the .name registry. The .name gTLD is intended for use by individuals and personalities, both fictional and real.. As a personal, unique and memorable identifier, .name addresses are increasingly being used as a natural address for Digital Identity applications.. The .name whois service is available at whois.nic.name, and there is a website where whois queries can be made at the .name whois website. The administrative and technical contacts for .name are the founders Hakon Haugnes and Geir Rasmussen..

Notes:

.name Premium Names

Some registries make additional revenue by charging for domains they deemed more valuable. Because of this sometimes we cannot not be totally sure of the price before purchase. If you request a .name and we discover the domain is a premium domain we will ensure that we contact you before completing your order.


.name Reserved Names

Domains are often reserved for future use and as such can cause false positives when searching for a domain. For example the domain may appear to be free and not in use, but in reality the domain name is reserved. The registry along with many other registry does this from time to time. If you request a reserved name we will not be able to register it for you but will refund your application fee in full.


.name Terms:

domain names are sold subject to the .name Registry Terms.
