MOTHER

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “MOTHER” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Nobukazu Shioya, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on March 24 2005 and abandoned on May 25 2006. It covered cosmetics and cleaning goods, specifically fragrances such as perfumes, colognes, and toilet water. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the fragrance or perfume market, but the record does not give the owner control over all uses of the word “MOTHER.” The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in October 2005 and an abandonment notice in May 2006, with no further maintenance or renewal events listed. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific fragrance goods remain a potential area of concern.
