New startup name: is the -ly suffix played out yet?

It seems to attract VC like a magnet.

You're about ten years behind the trend on this one. I think .io, .ai, and .so are this decade's equivalent.

YC’s still funding scads of -lys.

Yeah I'm sure there are some. You asked if it was played out, and in my opinion the answer is yes.

It sounds like you have a -ly name you want to use though, in which case, go for it!
