HAPPY CAPSerial 74207126 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Hicks, Peter R.
Class 025 - Clothing
Filed Sep 26, 1991
Registered Apr 08, 1997
The record shows that the mark “HAPPY CAP” is no longer active; it was cancelled on March 27 2020 because the owner, Peter R. Hicks, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on April 8 1997 for class 025, covering caps and hats. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the apparel and headwear market, specifically for caps and hats. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “happy” or “cap” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially allowed, then renewed and eventually cancelled; no supplemental registration or opposition actions appear. The last significant event was the cancellation in 2020, and no enforcement actions are recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the earlier registration for caps and hats remains a potential point of concern in that specific product line.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
