Have you bought your real name....
 
as a domain name yet?

jawanda 12-15-2004 12:51 AM

yep :glugglug

WiredGuy 12-15-2004 12:51 AM

Some artist has the same name and wanted $5k to sell it. Worst part is that his site is "closed for remodelling". LOL

Damian_Maxcash 12-15-2004 12:52 AM

I have never even thought of it

I will have a look now u mention it

Bigjohn 12-15-2004 12:52 AM

absolutely :thumbsup

Young 12-15-2004 12:52 AM

Bought it, let it expire, planned on grabbing it out of the pool once it did....forgot. Two weeks ago I e-mailed the guy who is now the proud owner of my name....he wants $1,500 for it.

Mind you that both my first name and last name are pretty unique as they are both portuguese. Fucking cocksuckers.

Anyone recommend any course of action I could take?

Let it go as it's best to not throw your real name around anyway :)

Great things can be said for anonymity

Yes definitely!!!

It's kind of like if someone has it of your actual name, in a way it's like...well...violating! Damn it! Just bought mine tonight, thought it would be a good idea! :thumbsup

NaughtyRob 12-15-2004 12:56 AM

Your right, but not necessarily to build a site around yourself, but so no one else can build a site around "you".

Sorry, don't know what I was thinking

NaughtyRob 12-15-2004 01:08 AM

Full real names are good if you are a photographer.

Example:
www.earlmiller.com
:2 cents:

Thats pretty much why I bought RobertFerrara.com

Maybe soooooome day I can be good enough to sell stuff using my name until then, I keep learning.
:glugglug

Strife 12-15-2004 01:09 AM

No, I tried back in '98 but a no-name actor by the same name got it before me. :(

Vitasoy 12-15-2004 01:10 AM

Someone has already registered it. :(

Voodoo 12-15-2004 01:12 AM

Nope, some fan bought mine and is holding it hostage.

NaughtyRob 12-15-2004 01:12 AM

Not necessary. I bought my name. Funny thing is I got an offer for it.

You don't have a brother in Ohio do you? Named Mike? Some family maybe owning a several million dollar business empire between Ohio and Tennesse?
