Happy autumn! The numbers this week in class 025: we had 748 newly registered trademarks, 379 previously registered marks were cancelled, and 147 applications were abandoned before they made it to the end of the process. And there are a couple of really popular ornamental phrases in that cancellation list!

Note: The marks in part 1 are now fully registered and active! These lists are compiled from the Trademark Official Gazette, which publishes lists of the newest registered marks every week. (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)

1776 NATION – Oh yay, just what we need, a new 1776 trademark.
BLACK MEN DESERVE TO GROW OLD
BODY BY GYGAX – Some guy named Luke Gygax, but this feels like a great D&D joke to me.
BOYNEXTDOOR
DUCK YEAH
EVERYONE IS AN ALIEN SOMEWHERE – It’s a Coldpay lyric?
FAN FOR GOD
FIGHTING DEMONS – Not sure if this is an action or a sports team mascot.
FUELLED BY OBSESSION
GOOSE – Talk to me, Goose!
HUG A NURSE – Yes! But only if they’re OK with it.
I LOVE THIS I LOVE THAT – I also love these and those.
JESUS PEACE
LFGO – Commonly short for “let’s fuckin’ GO”.
MAGICIAN
NOT GOOD
PLOUGH
REIGN OVER YOUR LIFE
REVIVE – Good gravy, we have a lot of common single word marks this week.
SAINT
SALT & VINEGAR – An excellent, puckery flavor combination.

PART 1-D: MY FAVORITE ILLUSTRATED MARK OF THE WEEK

It’s gotta be this baseball-playing hot dog owned by the Los Angeles Dodgers. They initially applied for this creature over 3 years ago, and took 5 extensions before they filed their Statement of Use. I applaud them for making it clear that this hot dog is squiggled with mustard; ketchup on hot dogs is the worst.

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!)

PART 3: ABANDONED APPLICATIONS! 🎉

Here are the applications that were abandoned this week in class 025, with mark drawing code 4. The most likely cause was the applicant not submitting corrected, updated, or informative material by the USPTO’s deadline. Ding, dong, these witches are dead! 🪦

[sic] = The mark contains a spelling, spacing, grammar, or punctuation error which does not appear to be wordplay. The error is left as-is.
[removed from spreadsheet] = The cancelled item had been on my spreadsheet of marks, and has now been removed.

Note: This is a curated list, and may not include all marks that affect you or your business. All opinions expressed in the snark are my own. All snark is intended for entertainment purposes.

As always, the new marks have been added to my ginormous spreadsheet; please check it out for a shockingly large list of registered trademarks!
