Is your last name a registered domain? - GoFuckYourself.com

psyko514 · 03-11-2004, 02:25 AM

I've been thinking about registering www.jurkowski.com (my last name). Apparently, a squatter registered it last September and is selling it for $300.

I'd understand if my name was Smith or Jones, but Jurkowski? WTF? Anyone else with a somewhat uncommon last name have this happen to them?

Jimbo · 03-11-2004, 02:26 AM

thats funny, are you jewish?

Lace · 03-11-2004, 02:27 AM

yeah the last name's "White"

psyko514 · 03-11-2004, 02:27 AM

Half Jewish. But the name is Polish, from my dad's side.

Morgan · 03-11-2004, 02:28 AM

netidentity.com owns my last name and like 50% of the rest of em out there...

foolio · 03-11-2004, 02:28 AM

fuzebox · 03-11-2004, 02:29 AM

Same with my last name, except it is not taken.

VideoJ · 03-11-2004, 03:20 AM

Got the .org for my last name, which is not very common at all. i should check the .com

Ludedude · 03-11-2004, 03:34 AM

Yeah, mine's taken by some squatters.

broke · 03-11-2004, 03:37 AM

think anderson is taken?

Lee · 03-11-2004, 03:42 AM

I got my surname which is rare but when I went to get the .co.uk I was beaten to it....by my mum

Maybe someday you'll inherit the rights to it...

born4porn · 03-11-2004, 03:45 AM

my brother has it registered and won't give it to me!

pradaboy · 03-11-2004, 05:11 AM

never gave it any thought but I just checked and go figure...

http://hoddenbagh.com/

is registered

Burtman · 03-11-2004, 05:14 AM

They want $1400 bucks for my last name.

hova · 03-11-2004, 05:20 AM

My dad registered mine for some reason,

Vitasoy · 03-11-2004, 05:36 AM

My last name is pretty common, so it's definitely already registered.

Hentaikid · 03-11-2004, 10:02 AM

My name + surname is taken, which was weird since it's not a common one. A little bit of digging revealed that I share my name with a bigwig in a famous private security company, so I'm guessing he bought the name to prevent people misusing his name.

brand0n · 03-11-2004, 10:07 AM

i own brand0n.com so im good to go

hoe_vender · 03-11-2004, 10:48 AM

XxXotic · 03-11-2004, 10:50 AM

my last name .ws isn't even available, i guess that's what happens when you share a name with a war general (patton)

bjs24 · 03-11-2004, 12:02 PM

My first and last name are only three letters and both are registered and working sites.

My last name is being used as a space exploration site.

XSV · 03-11-2004, 01:36 PM

I've owned my .com last name since '99.

X-Wing · 03-11-2004, 01:38 PM

netidentity.com owns it.

baddog · 03-11-2004, 01:40 PM

yeah, some damn clothing company happens to share my last name

XSV · 03-11-2004, 01:40 PM

03-11-2004, 01:42 PM

O!! My domain is free. Go to buy

StuartD · 03-11-2004, 01:47 PM

Well, Duncan is a bit of a common name, so yeah... it was registered long ago.

And I'm not overly impressed with what is there.

jimboc · 03-11-2004, 01:51 PM

It's taken, but I do have firstname-lastname.com

sixxxth_sense · 03-11-2004, 01:53 PM

Can you sue if ur lastname is bought?
I think it belongs to you or your family
I bet courts would have something to say to this!

Houdini · 03-11-2004, 01:54 PM

I bought the .net from netidentity two weeks ago for $185 bucks.
