RUMPELSTILTSKIN

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “RUMPELSTILTSKIN” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant, Creative Characters, Inc., failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on February 11, 2006 and abandoned on September 19, 2006. It was registered on the Principal Register for goods in class 028, which includes a wide range of children’s toys such as action figures, dolls, plush toys, inflatable toys, and related accessories. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the same toy categories, especially those involving fantasy or character figures. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. No enforcement activity is visible in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status suggests a lower risk, but the specific toy goods remain a potential area of concern.
