I just won WXV.net in Mohno's contest.

I would like to keep it and develop something on it as I like all of the pure 3-letter domains. As you can see, the letters will make this a tough one!

XV are the roman numerals for 15, but nothing interesting springs to mind along those lines. X is extremely limited but makes a nice symbol for Exchange. I'm not into adult sites, otherwise World X-Rated Video would be a natural. Wx is also shorthand for weather, but I'm not a weatherman! Anyone have any ideas?

(If it is any help, my areas of special interest are the internet and domains, media, sports and entertainment, but I will consider all possible uses).

The W is easy - with lots of words - but the XV is difficult.

Thanks Popper. No problem with the W for sure. Remember those supposed X-Ray vision glasses they used to sell in the back of comic books? I wonder if there is a vintage market for those!
Just the name "Want X-Ray Vision?" alone would probably draw some traffic, even if you couldn't deliver!

Not bad DomainPairs, though it is Extroverts. You could do a site devoted to wild antics by whacky people. I think I could collect all of the material I need right here at DNF!

Thanks Bid! I'll definitely look into that closely. I'll have a DNB donation for you if I decide to do that way!

Sorry Duke it is actually extra - comes from the latin meaning outside of.
It's one of those popular corruptions like double-barrelled names. That should be double-baron and comes from the mediaeval practice of interlinking two families to preserve the family fortune.

Adoptable Domains - thanks for the thought you gave this. I have actually been thinking about Weather Vane. As I stated earlier I am not interested in doing a site about weather but a weather vane tells you which way the wind is blowing. I thought it would be a cool name for a site about current trends in a lot of different areas (my interest in mostly in media so I was looking for that kind of application). The word "weathervane" is taken in all extensions so it a good abbreviation for it would the closest I could come anyhow.

BRN2H8 - Now I'm going to have to scramble for a German dictionary so I'll now what that means!
