Yup, definitely a challenge and the reason why I try to suggest lots of different TLDs as well as some simple mutations like name + "family". I'm still trying to figure out how else I can open it up for more useful domain names that don't become completely convoluted.

"the"+familyname+"s" might be another one to try, yeah my last name is also the name of a big company, and the Spanish word for Bull, so my options are limited in getting a "family name type of domain" only 1 of the options cropped up

A mutation that can be tried is removing the vowels from the last name. You might find it available, and also (at least for my fairly short, one syllable surname) almost makes the domain look and sound almost better and more smooth/flowy.
