Appreciate your sincere appraisal on this...newlyborn.com
thanks..
 
Nice and cute domain, will be great for a baby site.
$500 min but would not be suprised if it went over $1,000
 
The language doesn't quite work. Everyone says newborn, not newlyborn. For that reason I wouldn't see much resale value.
 
if it can be newlywed, why can't it be newlyborn????!!!!
 
it just can't.

I still like the name in a cutesy way. :)

Idiom does not always follow strict logic. That's why many whose English is a second language (I'm not saying that's you), make poor choices in domain regs.

Anytime you step outside of single words, you have to be careful you are following idiom...if you want to make a profit.

Because newlywed is a commonly accepted word in the English language - newlyborn is not. English has many idiosyncracies like that. You have to go with what is in common usage. Just because you think it would make sense to say newlyborn doesn't mean millions of people will start using that term when they have never used it before.

And google opens close to 1,000,000 with "newborn."

While the phrase "newly born" has some usage, the word newlyborn doesn't exist. Idiomatically, the word "newborn" will most often be used, instead of the phrase "newly born."

Further, this is one case where the tendency of URL phrase to be unparsed works against you, because someone reading the "word" newlyborn will associate with the common "newborn," resulting possibly in either incorrect recall, or a misperception of error.

Parse it to a phrase (i.e. "newly born"...and use the quote marks).
