Help me choose a good domain name

I want my own domain name to host my email mainly to escape Google's snooping advert bots.

What would you choose for a good domain name.

Be creative, GD

Why not just get something as close to surname.tld or firstinitialsurname.tld as you can get?

What do you put before the @?

And where do you get your hosting out of interest?

I just checked and I can get diggler.tld so I'm tempted to go for dirk@diggler

Some funnies, but nothing useable yet. I might just opt for [email protected] but probably can't now as you'd all spam it with ads for penis reduction meds.

You might want to add a few things about yourself perhaps - unless you want everyone to base it off "Dirk Diggler" FFS! Like are you going to be giving this e-mail address to family members? Potential employers?

Aye, true.

Imagine you were setting up a new email service, what would you want to call it if the company mission was no ads, 100% privacy. How could you sell that to prospective customers and know that people would be happy to have that domain name on their CV?

Imagine an alternative company were the email was going to be shared in an unprofessional environment, and you want the email address to be humorous but not too crude.

One for work, one for(e) play.

@dowie cheers, will have a think on that.
