> there is another group using the .fm of our name to make a somewhat similar product There is something called 'common law' trademark where just by use a company creates a trademark. You didn't mention if they claim (TM) which anyone can around a mark w/o registration. Odds are if they started to use first, you wouldn't be able to get them to stop, but if you are second to a category with the same name, they might have the option to stop you. But if they don't claim (TM), you could take the stance that the name is generically descriptive, and something no-one can trademark, and move forward under that basis. But then you leave open potential for others to use name as well. |
