Overview

What is .name.sy

.name.sy is the extension for personal names under Syria’s code: the word name. It is for individuals who want an address in their own full name: a doctor, an engineer, a writer or an artist, gathering their résumé, their work and how to reach them, and keeping it wherever they work.

Registering it requires the name to match the applicant’s own full personal name, and names that belong to others can’t be registered. So whoever visits rasha-darwish.name.sy knows the person named is the site’s owner, not a fan or an impostor; and that is what sets it apart from any other personal page.

Who it suits

For your field: is .name.sy the best fit?

Every field has an extension that says something about it. Here is what .name.sy says in each, and which extension completes it.

  • A self-employed professional

    Excellent · The first choice

    A doctor, lawyer or engineer working under their own name: the address is their name, and its holder is truly the one who registered it.

    Register it with.name.sy.me.sy

  • A résumé for work

    Excellent · The first choice

    A link in your full name on your résumé and in your professional profile, saying it is yours alone.

    Register it with.name.sy.name

  • A writer or artist

    Good · A good fit

    It suits your real name; if people know you by a stage name, choose .me.sy or .art.

    Register it with.name.sy.art

  • A pen name or nickname

    Consider another · Consider .me.sy

    The registration asks for a match with your full name; .me.sy is for a personal page under another address.

    Register it with.me.sy.me

  • A family member’s name

    Consider another · Only by its owner

    A name that belongs to someone else can’t be registered, even a relative’s; the name’s owner registers it themselves.

    Register it with.me.sy.sy

  • A company or store

    Consider another · Consider .com.sy

    For personal names alone; .com.sy is for your company, with its commercial register.

    Register it with.com.sy.com

What it does for you

What you gain when you register it

  • Your name, and no one else’s

    The registration matches your full name, so an impostor can’t register your name’s address in it.

  • An address that goes with you

    Jobs and cities change, and your name’s address stays as it is.

  • Email in your name

    rasha@rasha-darwish.name.sy is a personal email that belongs neither to a company you work for nor to a free service.

  • Your résumé in one link

    Your résumé, work and certificates on one page, with a link that carries your name.

And where its value shows

On the résumé

A link in your name under your heading.

On the clinic or office card

Your name itself is the address.

In your email signature

A personal email that stays after a job change.

In your professional profiles

One link that gathers your work.

  5. 5Renew automatically, or register for yearsUp to 10 years at once, so you never miss a date.
  6. 6Make sure the name isn’t someone else’s trademarkA registered trademark’s owner can recover the name from whoever registered it first.
