Domain names for babies
Categories: Newborns, Celeb parenting
Preparing for the arrival of a new baby is a busy time for all parents, including celebrities. Security forces have to be re-configured, private hospital suites (or entire wings, in some cases) secured, and domain names purchased before anyone else snags them.
The very day the Jolie-Pitt twins were born, their handsome Daddy's law firm purchased the following domain names:
knoxleonjoliepitt.com
knoxleonjoliepitt.net
knoxleonjoliepitt.us
knoxleonjoliepitt.org
knoxleonjoliepitt.biz
knoxleonjoliepitt.info

Unlike the Jolie-Potts, most parents don't purchase every combination of domain name possible, but snagging the domain rights for new babies has been going on for a while now. Some parents even using domain availability searches as a final litmus test on deciding what to name their upcoming child.
Buying the domain name for a new baby might make a great and unique gift for internet savvy new parents, too. They could use it to start a blog about the baby for friends and relatives until the child is old enough to take it over on their own.

I did register my kids names when they were born and I purchased my husband's name for him back when we met 10 years ago. Unfortunately, my children have fairly common names, so I had to go with the first and last name combo. I also just got my own name .me!!!
I didn't purchase them for their monetary value, however, but for them to perhaps use in the future. Right now they just link to our family Web site.

My son has his own domain that he now shares with his sister. We originally purchased it to share photo's and info with family and friends without constant brag emails.
