The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by META PLATFORMS, INC. The registration covers services in class 035 for an online directory information service about collegiate life, classifieds, virtual community and social networking, and in class 038 for providing online chat rooms for registered users to transmit messages about the same topics. A similar name would raise the closest concern for services that involve online social networking, community, or chat functions. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “Facebook” in all contexts. The mark’s status was renewed on July 25, 2016, and no other maintenance dates are supplied. There are no visible enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of a live, active registration in these specific services suggests a meaningful risk of conflict if the new name is used for comparable online social or chat services.

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.
