[E-trademarks] USPTO Expanding The Trademark Character Set?!?!?

[Ken Boone]

Building on my 3 July observations, I did the following search of Greek characters occurring in wordmark entries, retrieving a mix of recent TEAS and Madrid filings.

7 results for WD:( *Α* *Β* *Γ* *Δ* *Ε* *Ζ* *Η* *Θ* *Ι* *Κ* *Λ* *Μ* *Ν* *Ξ* *Ο* *Π* *Ρ* *Σ* *Τ* *Υ* *Φ* *Χ* *Ψ* *Ω* *Ϊ* *Ϋ* *ά* *έ* *ή* *ί* *ΰ* *α* *β* *γ* *δ* *ε* *ζ* *η* *θ* *ι* *κ* *λ* *μ* *ν* *ξ* *ο* *π* *ρ* *ς* *σ* *τ* *υ* *φ* *χ* *ψ* *ω* *ϊ* *ϋ* *ό* *ύ* *ώ* *Ϗ* *ϐ* *ϑ* *ϒ* )

Changing the search field to DE - Description of Mark expanded the hit list to 12 trademarks, all recent TEAS filings.

12 results for DE:( *Α* *Β* *Γ* *Δ* *Ε* *Ζ* *Η* *Θ* *Ι* *Κ* *Λ* *Μ* *Ν* *Ξ* *Ο* *Π* *Ρ* *Σ* *Τ* *Υ* *Φ* *Χ* *Ψ* *Ω* *Ϊ* *Ϋ* *ά* *έ* *ή* *ί* *ΰ* *α* *β* *γ* *δ* *ε* *ζ* *η* *θ* *ι* *κ* *λ* *μ* *ν* *ξ* *ο* *π* *ρ* *ς* *σ* *τ* *υ* *φ* *χ* *ψ* *ω* *ϊ* *ϋ* *ό* *ύ* *ώ* *Ϗ* *ϐ* *ϑ* *ϒ* )

Using the CM field provides a few additional trademarks.  Clearly, the USPTO character set for trademarks is expanding.

11 results for CM:( *Α* *Β* *Γ* *Δ* *Ε* *Ζ* *Η* *Θ* *Ι* *Κ* *Λ* *Μ* *Ν* *Ξ* *Ο* *Π* *Ρ* *Σ* *Τ* *Υ* *Φ* *Χ* *Ψ* *Ω* *Ϊ* *Ϋ* *ά* *έ* *ή* *ί* *ΰ* *α* *β* *γ* *δ* *ε* *ζ* *η* *θ* *ι* *κ* *λ* *μ* *ν* *ξ* *ο* *π* *ρ* *ς* *σ* *τ* *υ* *φ* *χ* *ψ* *ω* *ϊ* *ϋ* *ό* *ύ* *ώ* *Ϗ* *ϐ* *ϑ* *ϒ* )

No, I haven't really looked for any USPTO announcements regarding this expanding trademark character set theme.

Happy Trademarking,

Subject: [E-trademarks] Some Non-Standard Characters On Trademark Search and TSDR

I noticed a few non-standard characters on Trademark Search and TSDR today.

For 98628636,
[Image for 98628636]

the word mark is SAINT ?????.

On TSDR, the following is displayed as the translation statement.

The English translation of ἀρετή in the mark is excellence.

Curiously, the search TL:ἀρετή retrieves this trademark. Surprise!

So ἀρετή is acceptable text for the translation statement but not for the word mark?  (Well, the USPTO would prefer to convert ἀρετή to UPPER CASE characters.)

For the raw application on TSDR, following is the translation statement.

The English translation of ????? in the mark is excellence.

Sadly, the Trademark Search summary page displays neither the translation statement nor the description of mark.

For 98566492,

[Image for 98566492]

the word mark is ??? ?????.

On TSDR, following is the mark information.

Description of Mark:    The mark consists of the hebrew letters אור התורה without claim to any particular font or style.
Translation:      The English translation of אור התורה in the mark is light of torah.

Curiously, the search TL:"אור התורה" retrieves this trademark.  Same for the DE:"אור התורה" search.


Happy Trademarking,
