Is it a word? Or just letters? IMO, Not worth it either way.
Just my 2 cents though

.name is somewhat of a dud TLD. I'd skip it, unless it was some really excellent word or meaningful letter combination.

You would do much better if you put your money into a .com or
even .net

I've had no luck when it come's to .name

Good Luck

.name is very uncommon... the only ones worth getting is .com, .net, or .org...

I don't even think .info is worth buying (but of course, for people with a tight budget, go for it)

Don't waste your money on the .name unless you are regging your own name.

I agree. I don't like the .name namespace at all, but I would consider registering ultra-premium names like sexy.name or family.name if they were available.
