I agree. I used to have a dash ("-") in my domain name and all my friends and colleagues (italians, french, germans) hated it (I ended up hating it as well when having to type it on the phone) => don't ever use these kind of chars in the domain name. Additionally try not to use long top-level domains - I'm using now ".digital" but every time I have to type it it feels too long to me => I'm regretting having moved my (outdated) webpage there.

Also agree. The domain I bought for my family (my wife and myself) is hyphenated after our surnames and it time and again has been a pain to dictate to 3rd party.

  Why not register the unhyphenated name also, and redirect? NB: domain names are not for sale. You cannot buy them. You can only register control of them for a time period.

    Use initials for the last names and thats the default, firstnameln.com redirects to firstnamelastname.com And neither of those have hyphens

My impression is that "minus" is pretty acceptable in German domain names -- more so than in the English-speaking world.
