Forgot to mention - the United Kingdom and Britain (or Great Britain, to give proper title) are not the same thing. Britain is the island itself - it does not include Northern Ireland (as UK does). The name is derived from the roman name Britannia (as in song - Rule Britannia), which in turn derrived from ancient Celtic. So what would we use? .unik / .unki / .ukin / .king <- my favourite. Sorry - people here understand UK - please don't call me a yucky ;-) .gq - I presume it would make sense to Equatorial Guinea citizens.
