[E-trademarks] Trademarks without vowels

[Dale Quisenberry]

I feel like there has been some discussion about trademarks without vowels, but am not finding it.

An example is an application is filed on TMBLR

Suppose a registration already exists for TUMBLER for the same goods/services.

Has anyone encountered a similar situation?  Will the Examiner issue a likelihood of confusion refusal?  Are you aware of any cases in this area?

Thanks!

Dale
