.family

.family is a generic top-level domain intended for names and projects centered on families and close relationships. Its meaning is direct and does not depend on a particular country or language-specific institutional category.

It can work for family websites, genealogy projects, reunions, shared photo or information hubs, family businesses and services whose primary audience is parents or households. A surname paired with .family can also create a memorable private or public family identity.

Privacy deserves extra thought with this extension. A family-oriented domain may encourage people to publish names, photographs or information about children and relatives, so the choice of what to make public should be considered separately from the choice of domain.

.family is an open generic top-level domain. Available names can generally be registered through participating registrars, subject to registry and ICANN policies, while reserved names and existing rights can affect specific registrations.
