I now have a name@surname.net email, and I feel like a boss everytime I give it to someone

This is the way. It's way more professional than a freemail account (Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc)

My last name ends in "us", so I have my last name as my full domain (a .us top level). Pretty proud of myself for figuring that out. 😆

same, I feel lucky to have such an uncommon surname because I easily got the domain lol. there was a short version with the last two letters as the TLD but that was already taken sadly

I also got myself a surname.me domain for this reason. Now I feel like a boss.

p.s. I'm also a bit scared if the .me domain could be called of by the country,. since it's not a genericTLD, controlled by Montenegro.

My last name is too common and shared by some large companies to get anywhere close to it as a domain name.

I got -net.com, which is still cool I guess.

Is your last name “Incorporated”?
