In today's blog, we explored the legality of using the trademark symbol alongside made-up words. We found that, yes, it's perfectly legal to trademark invented words, as long as they meet trademark law requirements. These requirements include being distinctive and not causing confusion with existing trademarks. It's also paramount that the made-up word is linked to the goods or services you're offering. So, if you've coined a unique term for your brand, it might be time to consider trademarking it!

As a blogger, I've been researching the topic of trademarking logos with fonts. It turns out that you can indeed trademark a logo with a font, as long as the logo meets the criteria to be considered unique and distinctive. This means your logo must not be too similar to any existing logos and must be easily recognizable as representing your brand. Keep in mind, however, that trademarking a logo with a font doesn't give you exclusive rights to the font itself, just the logo design. So, while the process might be a bit more complex than simply choosing a font, it's definitely possible to protect your unique logo design through trademarking.
