Domain Forwarding service with subdomains?

Is there a place that would have this? I currently run an anime story archive site at www.anime-fiction.net hosted by Tera-Byte. I don't use 1/3 of my space right now and hardly any of my bandwidth. What I'd like to do is register a domain with my last name and create a few family pages useing the existing space. Is there anywhere that would do domain forwarding where I could me.lastname.com and have it forward to anime-fiction.net/family/me or whatever? The main thing is finding a register that will do sub domains and forward them to deffrent places. Kind of a spacific request I know, but any help would be great.

Registars don't do sub-domains, only domains. Sub-domains are setup by the host of whoever controls the nameservers.

Probably the easiest solution would be to setup your sub-domains and use mod_rewrite to redirect your pages to the new url.

I did find a service that looks good. Just double checking their reliability right now. It's www.2ya.com They are a little more expencive then other registers at $19.95 a year, but they offer a lot of features, subdomain forwarding being one of them. Seeing if I can find any place that might be a little cheaper but I don't think it's going to happen.
