VA VA VOOM

What this record means

The record shows that “VA VA VOOM” is a cancelled Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 3320888) owned by NOVA GAMING, L.L.C., a South Carolina limited‑liability company; the cancellation occurred on May 30 2014 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only Class 009 goods – specifically “computer software for use with gaming machines; gaming machines” – so a later use of the same wording on unrelated products would be a farther concern, while a similar name applied to gaming software or hardware would raise the closest record‑based issue. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “VA VA VOOM.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply moves from allowance to registration and then to cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use the name in the gaming‑software arena.
