The personal-name domain specialist

Your name. Your domain.

Type your name and see every domain worth owning — checked live against the public registries in seconds. Free, no account, no nonsense. And if your .com is already taken, our Name Concierge will look at how to get it back.

How it works

Three steps, about ten seconds

Type your name

First and last, or just your surname. Accents, hyphens and double surnames all handled.

See the whole shape of your name

We generate the forms actually worth owning — johnsmith.com, john-smith.com, smith.family, first.me — and check each against its registry, live.

Act on an honest answer

Available names link straight to a registrar. A taken .com comes with a realistic next step instead of a dead end.

Who it's for

Three people, one search

Professionals

Your name is your brand. Own the domain before your next employer, client or conference program prints someone else's version of you.

New parents

Secure your child's name while it is still yours to secure. A few dollars a year buys an unspoiled piece of their identity.

Families

One address for the whole surname — announcements, recipes, reunions — under an ending built for exactly that.

Guides

Choose well, once

Straight answers

Fair questions

Is this really free?

Yes — the search costs nothing and needs no account. If you register a name through a registrar link, that registrar may pay us a commission. It never changes your price.

Where does the availability data come from?

Directly from the public registries that run each ending, over the open RDAP protocol, from your own browser. It is a point-in-time answer: names get registered constantly, so the honest move is to act while a result says available.

My name is taken. Now what?

Take a strong variant now — it is cheap and keeps the name yours. If the exact .com matters, the Name Concierge will look at realistic acquisition routes with you. No fees are quoted until you have the facts.

What does “· DNS” mean on some results?

Endings like .me, .co and .io don't publish the same open registry data as .com, so for those we check whether the name exists in the global DNS instead — via keyless DNS-over-HTTPS from your browser. It reads delegation rather than the registry itself, which is why those results are labelled separately.

How does Lastname Domains make money?

Two ways, both disclosed: registrar commissions on names you choose to register, and (later) referral arrangements on concierge acquisitions. We do not sell your data — there is nothing collected to sell.

Someone else has your .com?

The Name Concierge looks at who holds it, what a realistic acquisition could look like, and what it might honestly take. Enquiries are free; no fees are ever quoted before you have the facts.
