.name domain name is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) in the Domain Name System of the Internet. It is intended for the use by individuals for representation of their real names, nicknames, screen names, pseudonyms, or other personal or fictional names. The top-level domain was delegated to Global Name Registry in 2001, although it did not become fully operational until January 2002. This top-level domain was delegated to VeriSign in February 2009.

As a personal, unique and memorable identifier, .name domain addresses are increasingly being used as a natural address for Digital Identity applications
