DON’T PANIC! This is a list of brand new applications for trademarks, NOT a list of marks that have been fully registered. For all of the marks on this list, an application was sent to the USPTO, and a serial number was automatically assigned. These won’t be seen by human eyes for about 6 months, and many will be rejected or abandoned.

I’ve made bold the ones that seem either really egregious or are commonly used all over.

[sic] = A spelling, spacing, grammar, or punctuation error is part of the mark, not a typo from my butterfingers.

Note: This is a curated list, and may not include all marks that affect you or your business. All marks in this list are Drawing Code 4, meaning they are plain text without any required style, color, or font. All opinions expressed in the snark are my own. All snark is intended for entertainment purposes.

If one of these applied-for marks affects your business or brand, it’s never too early to file a Letter of Protest! You’ll need to create a MyUSPTO account to submit an LoP. It’s a handy account; you can also keep a list of applications of interest, and get an email any time there’s activity on that application!
