The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by META PLATFORMS, INC., a Delaware corporation. The registration covers services in class 038, which includes providing access to computer, electronic and online databases; telecommunications services such as electronic transmission of data, messages and information; online forums, chat rooms, and bulletin boards for general interest communication; and related online communication links that transfer users to other web pages. It also covers class 045 services of identification verification. A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for any of these communication or verification services, especially online platforms or forums. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “Facebook” in unrelated contexts. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. The latest status event is a renewal noted on July 30, 2022. If you plan to use a similar name for an online communication or verification service, this record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.

Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.

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.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
