The issue I have is that my family name is relatively common, and I'm pretty awful at coming up with names.
Yet I'd like to register a decent domain name that SEO won't hate.

The point of the site would be about programming in general, and some things about android development.
So I was thinking about registering fmdev.org (or .net any input on which of the two is more interesting is always appreciated).
The reason for not picking a .com despite its obvious advantages is that I'm a bit leery about how the USA has been acting lately in regards to privacy/ownership of people from another country when they just own hosting in the USA/having a .com domain name).

I first thought about going for the full blown development instead of dev, but that seemed a bit on the long side. And I'm guessing google's search engine will pick up on the meaning. (or am I mistaken in that?)

Any advice/input is always appreciated.

Domains and Extensions do not play a major role in SEO although they are necessary if you wan't a perfectly optimized site. I don't see any reason why you should not have a .com domain. If I were you and had the money, I would have booked all TLDs for fmdev as it secures your brand which is much more essential in your case.

Domains are cheap so you can have both and there aren't any problems with registering and owning .com domains here (I'm from Poland).

I'd say go for the shorter one (fmdev also sounds nice).

When it comes to small sites the content is much more important than the URL as long as it's short and easy to remember.
