What if somebody else with the same surname wants quirk.cc? All that you really have going for you is that you were there first. What if the other Quirk is somebody more prominent? What if they have a bigger family to give email addresses to, or a cooler idea for the site? It's really not faaaaaaaiiiiir that you are hogging that domain name.
Maybe you should be required to sell it to them at a reasonable price, no more than 100 quid. Or provide documentation proving you have a better use for the domain than they do.
Or maybe that's all a lot more complicated, ripe for abuse and favoritism, and centralized than the current system where the owner sets the price and you are free to either buy it, or pick from the infinite space of other options and leave them still holding it paying yearly fees on something they get zero value from. Especially in today's world where every browser's address bar is really a search bar by default, most email clients display the person's "real name" with more prominence than their email address, and a nice domain name is just a cute little bonus.
