The ETH Address record is one of the main records of your ENS name. It determines what address on Ethereum funds are sent to when transfers are made to your name. It's also sets up the name as a possible Primary Name for that wallet address. See The Primary Name.

If you find that an ENS name you own doesn't show up in the Primary Name drop-down list for your wallet, it's usually because the ETH Address record isn't set to it.

To find out how to set the ETH Address record or for more information about the Primary Name, see
