.NAME Domain Names

Started in 2001, the .NAME gTLD is the only one intended for personal sites only. These domain names can consist of personal or fictional names, nicknames and/or other designations people are known by. Initially, just third-level registrations were possible, so if you wished to reserve john.doe.name, you were required to do that under .doe.name. In 2004, however, the registration process was liberalized and second-level registrations were also allowed. Already grabbed third-level domains remained functional.

Through our firm, you can order your dot NAME domain for a period between 1 and 10 years. You will have the opportunity to update the WHOIS contact information, to park your domain, to create Custom DNS records, etc. You can also transfer an active domain to our firm if you have its EPP transfer code from the current registrar company and we will renew it once the transfer has been completed. There are no particular regulations on who can acquire a dot NAME domain name, but in order to maintain the idea behind its establishment alive, the dot NAME Registry may check who the owner is and if there is no relation between the owner and the actual domain name, the registration can be challenged.

The .NAME generic domain extension is one of the extensions that support internationalized domains, so we can also register a domain in any language at no extra cost. In this way, your .NAME domain will be recognized in your country or area with the right spelling in your local language.
