MODERATORS
“premium” domains are usually domains that were registered by someone at some point and then the registrar kept it because some of their automated analysis decided your last name is shared by xyz people and the domain could be valuable.
Wait, is it bad that I purchased rights to 5 domains with my name on them but haven't decided what to do with them yet so they're just empty?
As long as you keep renewing them you should be fine.
