Hi. I'm a game programmer and planning to make a personal portfolio.
Sorry if I sound a bit ignorent, this is going to be my first website, and I don't understand too much about naming it.
This is something that should mainly be linked to, on my cv or social media.
I'm wondering what is the suggest way of naming your website. Such as, is firstnamelastname . com a good name. What about programming-firstnamelastname . com.
Does the ending make much difference? Such as . com vs . UK vs . Wales.
Thank you.

Can I use my own name for my portfolio?
Why is choosing the right name so important for my portfolio?
Can I change my portfolio name in the future?
I've noticed that a lot of people use the www.FirstNameLastName.com combination for their portfolio domains... But my first name is very difficult to spell correctly; therefore I want to use something else, while still maintaining a professional look.
Lets say my name was Jonathan Smith, and I didn't want to use jonathansmith.com because Jonathan could be misspelled as Johnathan, Johnathon, Jonathon, etc. What could be some alternatives?
