Is your last name a registered domain?
 

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?

thats funny, are you jewish?

yeah the last name's "White"

:1orglaugh

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

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

i got: [email protected]

i have a weird ass last name, and according to godaddy the only open slot for it is .US :1orglaugh

Sucked being born into a family with the name "Yahoo" :(

Q) How do you keep a half-jew / half-polack in suspense ?? :)

My last name is Brew :drinkup :drinkup
So I'm gonna assume...yes.

nope, myfirstname.com and mylastname.com are both owned by netidentity.com. Those fuckers :321GFY

yes and every one of em':(

netidentity.com owns my last name too

my name is asher gofuckyourself, mines taken :(

seriously though, mine is not so common (only one listing in the phone book, and thats my family) but its taken and sells an email service for $25/year. fuck them :321GFY

that sucks

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

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

Yeah, mine's taken by some squatters.

think anderson is taken?

:1orglaugh

I got my surname which is rare but when I went to get the .co.uk I was beaten to it....by my mum :eek7

haha owned:D

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

my brother has it registered and won't give it to me! :1orglaugh

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

http://hoddenbagh.com/

is registered :1orglaugh

They want $1400 bucks for my last name.

My dad registered mine for some reason,

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

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.

i own brand0n.com so im good to go

yes

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

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.

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

netidentity.com owns it.

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

I've owned my last name since '99. :)

O!! My domain is free. Go to buy :)

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.

It's taken, but I do have firstname-lastname.com:1orglaugh

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!

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

No

Yes. Welcome to the dubya dubya dubya.

My last name was registered in '94.

my last name is srb. taken everywhere.

no domains for my last name available at all, thats what i get for having the same last name as Homer, Bart , Lisa, Marge and Maggie :mad:

http://www.rockefeller.com/

Mine's been taken for years. I tried to register it back in 1996.
