.gg is the domain extension for Guernsey, which lies in the English Channel. The island is a British Crown dependency and is not part of the United Kingdom. The registry is operated by Island Networks, which also manages the .je extension for neighbouring Jersey.
In gaming slang, ‘GG’ stands for ‘good game’, which is why ‘.gg’ has become a popular extension within the gaming community: it is favoured by esports teams, streamers, gaming websites and Discord communities. It is short, easy to remember, and anyone can register it.
