WORDRAMP

What this record means

The record shows that WORDRAMP is a cancelled Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 3470609) owned by Howard Houck, an individual, and it is no longer live as of the February 27, 2015 status date when the USPTO cancelled the mark for failure to file a proper Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only class 009 “Electrical & Scientific Apparatus,” specifically digital materials such as CDs, DVDs, chip‑cards and downloadable audio, video, image, MP3 files and ring tones that feature narrated fiction, non‑fiction, illustrations and graphics. A similar name used for those kinds of digital media would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “WORDRAMP.” No enforcement actions, oppositions or cancellations beyond the Section 8 lapse appear in the history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market comparable downloadable content under a similar name.
