Disclosed is a local area information-providing system and method using
real names. When an access word provided by an accessing client via a
network is a real name, a local area information database is searched
using the real name and the client's position information, and various
kinds of information on the real name placed within an area corresponding
to the client's position information are found and provided to the
client. Together with this, an Internet address corresponding to the real
name is provided to the client, and accordingly, the client accesses the
web page corresponding to the input real name. Hence, the user can access
desired web pages using not conventional English domain names but real
names, and concurrently receive various kinds of local area information
corresponding to the real name. Especially, the user can receive various
kinds of local area information of the real names corresponding to
