MISSY MEYER’S SNARKY MUSINGS ABOUT TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHT, LICENSING, AND OTHER IP MATTERS!

Trademark Tuesday – New and Cancelled Marks – 11 February 2025

Numbers for the week of February 11: there were 518 newly registered trademarks in class 025; a beefy 256 previously registered marks were fully cancelled, and 145 applications were abandoned before they reached the finish line.

Note: The marks in part 1 are now fully registered and active! This list is compiled from the USPTO Trademark Search system. Some of these are legitimate brand names! I’ve included them on this list because those brand names are also words or phrases that may be used on the goods in question by crafters and makers.

 


PART 1: NEW REGISTRATIONS (PRINCIPAL REGISTER)

 

97534886BABY GAYI’m sure this mark will make people clutch their pearls. “How dare you assign sexuality to a baby,” they’ll cry. But so does BS like “she’ll have the boys beating down the door when she’s older” or “he’s breaking the girls’ hearts already!”
97880610BAD ENOUGH TO WEAR BLUEIt’s a non-profit that supports men’s health screenings.
98197197BOUNTY HUNTERMy favorite is Boba Fett.

PART 1-C: OLDER REGISTERED MARKS I DISCOVERED THIS WEEK

None! I used to find these when doing the list of cancellations, and finding items that were only partially cancelled. I think with my new system, I’m filtering them out completely.

 


PART 1-D: INTERESTING ILLUSTRATED MARK(S) OF THE WEEK

You could describe these two marks in the exact same way: “a simple, almost child-like drawing of an elephant from the side.” And yet they’re so very different!  The all-black one is part of the logo for Trendsplant S.L., a clothing company from Spain; while the colorful one is owned by Andersen Press in the UK, and his name is Elmer the Patchwork Elephant.

A super simple black clipart-style elephantA simply drawn elephant filled with a patchwork of colorful squares.

 


PART 2: CANCELLED MARKS

(Standard disclaimer: Always double-check these words and phrases before using them in your designs, to make sure there isn’t a separate registration that is still live and active. Some marks have multiple registrations!)
