My wife's last name is music. Can I sue music.com for the name rights? She had that last name much longer than they had the site registered.
There are some experts in the Legal issues forum (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=44) they may have a good answer for this.
my last name is english..can't I sue the language, cause I uncle told me that my great aunt said thather sister said, that a friend told her, that her grandpa(who was actually related to the first uncle) said that my great-great-great grand mother was a former descendant of the founder of "new age english" which originated from the old english which was started by my uncle. anyways...short answer...no....nice try though. I'll look forward to seeing the case end up like that wendy's thumb lady
ok so if you sue and get it then you cant sell it because that wuld be illegal sometimes i wonder how i finish the day
I wouldn't, it is the internet. I geuss I would be a little pissed if she really was a hairy pitted hippie libber type that DID keep her own last name.
There are many cultures that the women keep there last name also, my wife isn't from the US and has 2 last names, mine and her fathers, no hyhen though so henny would know she isn't lesbian feminist. Although I am sure he would get a kick out of the spanish/german combo. In the business world I see women keeping thier last name as the name recognition is already. Would be like a company changing it's name and loosing the branding.
