#12https://www.icann.org/en/accredited-registrars?filter-letter... is a good list.
I use OVH

#13https://www.infomaniak.com/en/domains - Not exactly EU, as it is Swiss-based. They often have pretty good prices, and good customer service.

#14I use eurodns.com because they have a wide range of TLDs (like .so) and are much cheaper than Gandi.

Gandi lost their customers' data 2 years ago and if memory serves, their CEO blamed ZFS RAID(Z) "backup" which failed.
We're talking domains not storing data but I would think twice before trusting company with CEO referring to data existing on a single computer as "backed up".

#16The best registrar would be a registrar with no customer support or human intervention. Customer support agents are always the weakest link for domains when they get tricked into granting unauthorized access.
I would be wary of using any German registrar because of extremely weak privacy laws in the country (impressums etc)

#18I use united-domains.de
Their website is fast and allows batch queries for when you're trying to find a new project name. Prices are reasonable. I've never used their included hosting or email, though. 3rd party Nameservers like CloudFlare work great.

They are super serious reliables dudes. One of the earliest registrar in Europe and the first in France.
They also support and contribute to open-source projects (code & money).
Far better than OVH.
