ALPHABET
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “ALPHABET” was registered on the Principal Register on January 14, 2003, but it was cancelled on August 22, 2009 because the owner, Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled registration covered a range of vehicle‑related services in classes 035, 036, 037, 039, and 042, including business research, credit card and insurance services, vehicle repair, rental, and travel agency services. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those vehicle‑related service areas, especially where the mark was used for business consulting or vehicle maintenance. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “Alphabet.” No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations are listed, so the supplied history shows none. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 2009. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status means the mark is no longer active, but the goods and services listed still represent a potential area of concern if used in a comparable context.
