.NAME

Dot NAME Domain Names

Launched in 2001, the .NAME generic extension is the only one supposed to be for personal sites only. These domain names can include personal or fictitious names, aliases and/or other titles people are known by. At first, only 3rd-level registrations were allowed, so if you desired to reserve john.doe.name, you were supposed to do that under .doe.name. In 2004, however, the registration process was liberalized and 2nd-level registrations were also permitted. Already acquired third-level names remained working.

Through our company, you can purchase your .NAME domain for a period between one and ten years. You will have the chance to edit the WHOIS contact information, to park your domain, to set up Custom DNS records, etc. You can also transfer an already registered domain to our firm if you acquire its EPP transfer code from the current domain registrar and we will renew it when the transfer has been finished. There are no particular terms on who can grab a .NAME domain, but in order to keep the concept behind its creation alive, the dot NAME Registry organization may check who the owner is and if there is no connection between the owner and the actual domain, the registration might be challenged.

The .NAME domain name extension is amongst the extensions that support internationalized domains, so we can also register a domain in any language at no further cost. In this way, your dot NAME domain will be recognized in your country or area with the exact spelling in your local language.
