familyname.co.uk Dropped Today.

Local 90,500 Global 1,830,000 Competition Low

Obviously some sort of family surname reference site and I think it sounds right too ...

Whats are your thoughts on this one ?

"family name" gets 320 exacts on Google Keyword tool. If you don't use the "exact" setting, the numbers mean very little. It's not a bad domain as such, but the traffic wouldn't be there undeveloped. The key expression in this space is clearly "surname" which gets 6,600 exacts.
 
Local exact's are only 320

You've used the broad match type figures rather than exact, exacts are 320 for the term. Global results have little bearing on .UK names as they domain don't appear on Google in countries other than the UK, global is for the like of .com and .net

This is the site history for the domain, which shows 1 entry for 2005 where it was just the control panel default login page, so there's no history as an actual site:

http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://familyname.co.uk

I wouldn't value it at much really, if it was developed in to a site with a large database of all family surnames, then it might have some legs, but limited appeal as a domain only.
