There seem to be fewer and fewer registrars offering .name - and I suspect it has something to do with how difficult it is to work with the registry. They have made promises that they later go back on, and have made their mail forwarding service impossible to "add on" at a later date.
We still get a steady stream of registrations, but no where near the first few months.
Any OpenSRS reseller should be able to help you with .name registrations.
