How it works
Simple, personal, and we handle the hard parts.
Your name, your address
You get an email address that's simply your name, like john@smith.net or sarah@johnson.com.
Works with what you use
Keep Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook, or whatever inbox you already know. Everything forwards there.
We understand
Changing your email feels overwhelming. It does not have to be.
Your email address is often the first impression you make. But if you have had the same one for years, it might be showing its age: an old AOL address, a string of numbers from your cable company, or a handle you picked when the internet was new.
You think about changing it, then you think about everyone who has your current address. The accounts tied to it. The fear of missing something important. So you stay put.
RealNames gives you an address you are proud to share without asking you to rebuild your whole email life.

Common questions
You are wondering...
What if the name I want is already taken?
There is usually room for a first name, middle initial, nickname, or family variation.
Will I lose emails sent to my old address?
No. Your old address can keep working, and your RealNames address forwards to your existing inbox.
How hard is this to set up?
We do the technical work and send simple setup guidance for your mail provider.
Can my whole family use the same domain?
Yes. Once you have smith.net, you can add jane@smith.net, mike@smith.net, and more.
