there can be multiple Trademarks for the same name for differnet people/companies. According to The UK Patent Office they must be "distinctive for the goods/services for which registration is sought, and not deceptive, or contrary to law or morality, and not identical or similar to any earlier marks for the same or similar goods/services." Examples: CRUCIBLE (Just picked that becuase I am looking at my Meteor CID Box!) http://webdb4.patent.gov.uk/cgi-bin/casablanca/cb_cgi?cb_dialogue=dlg_tmer85 &detailsrequested=C&trademark=2133872 http://webdb4.patent.gov.uk/cgi-bin/casablanca/cb_cgi?cb_dialogue=dlg_tmer85 &detailsrequested=C&trademark=2122562 http://webdb4.patent.gov.uk/cgi-bin/casablanca/cb_cgi?cb_dialogue=dlg_tmer85 &detailsrequested=C&trademark=2122562 Same word registered in different classes. So the argument regarding If they have a registered trademark does not hold water. Michael
