Latest public DomainTools TLD count snapshot.
.NAME share of 392.5M total domain registrations.
Total domain registrations across all TLDs in Q1 2026.
This chart compares .NAME with major domain categories using Q1 2026 domain-name-base data. It gives buyers a clear view of how .NAME fits within the wider TLD market.
Unlike broad business or tech extensions, .NAME directly suggests a person, family, creator, profile, or identity-focused project.
A .NAME address immediately tells visitors that the domain is connected to a person, family name, or professional identity.
Professionals can use .NAME for CV pages, bio links, writing archives, consulting profiles, or personal email routing.
Individuals and families can compare first-name, surname, initials, and nickname combinations before choosing one stable address.
Selected public count snapshots compare .NAME with related personal, profile, and identity-friendly namespaces through 2026.
Selected public .NAME completed-sale records show limited but verifiable aftermarket activity for personal, descriptive, and profile-friendly names in the .NAME namespace.
Personal domains are often long-term assets, so search carefully, protect obvious variants, and keep transfer/renewal control clear.
Register a clear name and keep future renewal control in one account.
Compare multiple names before committing budget to a larger registration list.
Offer clients a domain workflow that fits website, DNS, SSL, and email setup.
Use a focused web address for landing pages, redirects, or product-specific projects.
If you already own .NAME domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.
Paste multiple .NAME names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.
Enter one name per line, with or without .NAME. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.
If your business sells hosting, websites, SaaS, agency services, or brand protection packages, NiceNIC reseller APIs can support domain registration, renewal, transfer, DNS, and account management.
