I, too, wonder about safety of my full name being out there-I’m older and still uncertain about some of this stuff. I did register my business name (about $24 a year-apparently I could have found somewhere a lot cheaper), but how important would it be for my own name to be registered? I have observed that things change so fast in technology, something may come up to make having a domain name unnecessary, and then I’d have spent money on it for no reason. But if I would want to, where should I try that wouldn’t be expensive? That would be a factor in whether I do it or not.
Thanks!

Register your own name as domain name is good idea for branding yourself. Visitors can type your name as domain name if they forgot your website address.

I had to wait a while to get myname.com. Someone else had it registered. My last name is pretty rare, and the guy that had it registered had a different last name and spelled his Ryan with two ns so it worked out the same as my first and last name dot com.

I’ve since registered my wife’s name and our about to be born daughter’s.

I’ve been thinking about buying myname.com for a while- it’s still free and everything – but I’ve just felt uncertain about it. First, I’d want a domain like that to be my ‘permanent home’ on the internet, if you know what I mean, but what if my name changes? Being female, that’s pretty likely. Also, is it safe to blog so visibly with your full name (from an under-18s perspective)?
Could you do a NameMiddlename.com (mine would be jessicaelisabeth.com). At least that won’t ever change, right? And it’s “safer”? But it doesn’t have the googleability…

I’m feeling indecisive
