I've used Network Solutions, NameCheap, Gandi, and a handful of specific ccTLD registrars. I never had any problems with any of them and I wouldn't worry about what you chose too much. That being said, I like using Gandi knowing they support (financially or otherwise) many amazing open source projects and organizations. Those that stand out to me include Debian, EFF, and CC, but I recommend you take a look at the full list[0] on their website. They also take a strong stance against SOPA[1] (and clones) and prominently display their no bullshit stance[2] on their website and merchandise. There's also a bit of a bonus if you're slightly tech savvy because you can often find their devs on Freenode at #gandi-mail or #gandi-hosting, though it's not advertised and there's no guarantee.
