Do you like hand-registering domains? If so, you probably spend a lot of time trying to come up with brandables, great phrases, or trendy words that no one’s bothered with yet, at least in some extensions. Sometimes I’ll make lists of different types of words, and awhile back decided to extend my search to phrases. I made a list of phrases with “and” in the middle. It was really disappointing to find nearly every one of them already registered in .com, showing how much people enjoy commonly used phrases. Never underestimate the common phrase, when it comes to domains. My list of And phrases is below. I removed the book, magazine and play titles part because it was just getting too long. So you won’t find items like warandpeace, antonyandcleopatra, or caranddriver. Sayings —- life and death death and taxes birds and bees (maybe more often said, the birds and the bees) peas and carrots salt and pepper sweet and low beer and skittles bubble and squeak please and thank you And of course we could add proper names — ben and jerry ren and stimpy lord and taylor dick and liz — open Some directives or exhortations —- try and guess stop and think sit and listen look and listen shop and save Actions —- sit and stew — open sit and spin knit and crochet (or needle and crochet) kneel and pray cut and paste cut and dried shake and bake copy and paste wither and die curl up and die rise and shine sit and rot — open shiver and shake laugh and play At some point these are simply phrases — cry and scream yell and scream wail and moan wine and dine dine and dash touch and go hell and back come and go buy and sell give and take push and pull back and forth scratch and sniff (Here we must remind everyone of the obvious, that “and” can often be replaced with a contraction ’n’ or ’n or simply n) hug and kiss wave and particle time and tide fool and his money moose and squirrel lock and key seen and not heard cat and mouse horse and rider bit and tackle mother and child forgive and forget loved and lost father and son friends and lovers bread and butter wine and cheese tea and crumpets peaches and cream wine and roses fish and chips hide and seek live and learn hope and pray watch and learn sing and play run and jump hunt and fish point and shoot fair and square man and beast man and woman big and beautiful lost and found sweet and sour fun and games day and night night and day rich and famous art and science prim and proper needle and thread read and write find and seek hop and skip slip and slide rock and roll run and jump hit and run you and me you and I me and you eggs and bacon bacon and eggs ups and downs back and forth this and that here and there hearth and home land and sea truth and justice right and wrong lo and behold down and dirty down and out high and mighty north and south east and west left and right hunt and gather smoke and ash rag and bone dog and bone
