[President Gringo]

I wanted to buy a domain name for someone, the domain name being their name....but which is best? I can't decide.

i wish.......that would have been taken a long time ago. And the forenamesurname.com was also taken.......damn realtor grrrrrrrrrr

And to clear up confusion, the choices would be something like

www.president-gringo.com
or
www.presidentgringo.net

obviously, thats not it, but you get the drift.

Unless they will be submitting the names to the search engines, I would do: www.presidentgringo.net.

The "hypens" are usually meant for SE's. People don't normally think to add the hypen otherwise if typing the name in the browser.

I 've no idea about their respective valuations.

How about: Surnames.info; .INFO will suit well with this particular name. Let me put this up for valuation to see what folks think.

 

[President Gringo]

this is not about value, nor about search engines. Its just a personal page really, a gift for my fiancee with her future surname .....i know she'll get a kick out of it

 

[options]

Presidentswife.com

Available.

 

[President Gringo]

i like that presidentswife one......but i think i'll go with her name.

I noticed the forenamesurname.us was available. Any thoughts?

Umm...Quick question. If this is your fiancee and you will someday get married, I hope you are buying, HerforenameYourSurname.whatever....

Just something to think about. By the way, before I forget, Congrats!!!

I think she will. A personal domain can say things jewelry can't---and of course they are cheaper too!!

ya should have seen the ring she got........she nearly pee'd herself when she found out how much it cost.....and the place she took it to get apprasied at was shocked at the quality.

i think you'll agree its a unique design (well, it was designed by a famous brit designer).

I'm assuming that's platinum and not silver

 

[!ben]

you could always get a .name address .... just a thought

then you'd have forename.surename.name and [email protected] - in case you didn't know.

5 votes?

anyone think .us would be better than the .net?

 

[GiantDomains]

.com Gringo. The hyphen helps you visualize the name. Surprised you suggested .us....that could be confusing for a "name" domain for Britian... people may aske if she moved to the states?!

I voted .com.

Her name's not Isadore or Jacquiline is it?

isadore.com
jacquiline.com

All the best,
