I was wondering, If I have a company that I want to register my domains to, who do I put in the "First Name" and "Last Name" fields under the registrant, not the administrative contact.
For instance, I've seen some people list it as "admin" & "admin".
I've also seen other people put "companyname" & "llc".
I want my company to be the legal owner of the domain, not myself or any other individual.
Aside: I've read many times that the whois is the legal owner of the domain. I read yesterday, and unbeknown to me that if you use a private registration service,
you aren't the legal owner of the domain:
"if you use a service like this, they own the domain, not you, notwithstanding whatever contract or Terms of Service you enter into with them to "own" this name on your behalf. If it lands in a dispute proceeding it will be an open and shut case: they own the name."
