Yes, but just about anyone seeking to register a .WhosWho domain name based on their own names or most dictionary words will likely find it available at the "Standard" (lowest) rate. In addition, renewals for both "Standard" and "Premium" registrations are priced at the "Standard" rate ... none are higher. (Naturally, availability of any .WhosWho domain name is subject to prior registration.)
The type of names one would expect to find available at "Standard" rates include those that incorporate full names or names combined with initials, or a generic word or words, such as:
- FirstMiddleLast.WhosWho
- FirstMLast.WhosWho.WhosWho
- FirstLast.WhosWho
- FMLast.WhosWho
- LastFM.WhosWho
- FirstMiddleL.WhosWho
- UpcomingElections.WhosWho
- BestResortChefs.WhosWho
- OntarioTeachers.WhosWho
et cetera.
Those looking for a domain with a much wider demand, or one with investment potential, may find them available at premium rates. Premium domains will include popular family/last names (Smith.WhosWho), perhaps for a genealogy site; a stand-alone given/first name (CHER.WHOSWHO) for professional branding; or even a “monogram domain” comprised of just 4 initials or less (eec.whoswho) for those who prefer something short, discreet and yet bespoke.
This means that very common stand-alone names sought as domain names (John, Mary, Smith, Jones, etc.)and the "100 Chinese Family Names" may be expected to be available at higher prices than than less common names.
Who's Who Registry has also reserved domain names relating to municipalities, industries, and occupations, as well as generic team names, and select nouns and verbs. Such reserve names are targeted at registrants seeking to develop social media titles and/or communities within a particular sphere of interest, and to attract premium registration rates in such cases.
