Think in terms of a company that might have a long name or a law firm with
several partner names. So you could have
hamil-thompson-johnson-smith-jones-white-llc.com (with or without) the
dashes. I know I try typing the full name of the company out to see first if
they are registered that way before I do a search for their web site, and I
know my customers do the same thing. So longer names are going to be
required in the future.
