I'd sell you this one if I owned it.

I like Modern Adornments.

I added a poll with three variations to choose from (these are all available).

I think this idea is worth exploring, call your website Modern Adornments, but have a simple domain name that's easy to remember and key in correctly

I'll have you know you've just caused CP and I to have a discussion about diphthongs.

ETA: And now I've learned that a diphthong means something a little different than I've always been taught it means. You learn something new every day.

Anyway, just don't go with "Modornments", that's horrible.

Jing Jing-a-ling-a. JingJing.com?

By modern, do you mean contemporary? Or do you mean modern as in early to mid-twentieth century? The term modern adornment makes me think of something I'd see in a 50's issue of McCall's or BH&G.

I think if adornmentsbylisa and artofadornment are available, they should be grabbed and pointed to whatever the final site is, because they're both excellent names (and could be used as sub-stores later). Also, if buymystuffdammit is available, it should be grabbed with all haste and used to sell geek goodies. No, seriously.

So far I like it. Modern Adornments.

Don't chose a URL with dashes in it. Think of all the site you go to... Do any of them have dashes in the name? The only one I can think of is coca-cola.com. People just don't use dashes in their URLs.

All you need from GoDaddy is the registration. No email, no extra add-ons, etc. They try and upsell so much crap that you don't need. Private registration isn't necessary, but if you are worried about a stalker or getting spam or junk mail you maybe might want it. I personally don't use private registration and I've never had an issue with junk mail or anything like that.

I'd be happy to get you a coupon code and walk you through the process of purchasing the domain or do it for you. It will cost under $8 if you don't add on the private registration.

On a side note, modadornments.com is available. You can always call the site Modern Adornments, and use the shorter URL for the address...

Also of note, modernadornments.com is expiring in September and it doesn't seem like the domain holder has plans for it. I'd say it's likely to become available shortly thereafter.
