You have the option of
purchasing DOMAIN NAME and FORWARDING EMAIL together (option
1) at a value saving price. The
.name registration prices are listed
below.
Please note: If you register your .name domain name only,
your .name forwarding email address of the same name will be put on
hold for as long as you own the registration on your domain.
It is the same for .name forwarding email. If you register your .name
forwarding email address only, your .name domain of the same name will
be put on hold for long as you own the registration on your
forwarding email address.

Do I still get the free email forwarding offered by
DomainProcessor if I purchase the .name domain name?
Yes. you will still get the 10 free email forwardings from
DomainProcessor, however they are 3rd level emails formatted as
anyname@firstname.lastname.name.
If you wish to obtain a 2nd level email like firstname@lastname.name,
you will need to purchase the above listed options because technology and structure is different for .name domain
names.
What's the structural difference between .name domain
name and other extensions?
The .name domain name has to be registered on the 2nd and 3rd level,
it is different from the other top level domain names like
.com, .biz, or .info which registers domain names only on
the 2nd
level. See the domain name hierarchy below.
