FUNKY PIRATES
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “FUNKY PIRATES” is a cancelled principal registration owned by SEIKODO CORPORATION, a joint‑stock company organized in Japan. The mark was registered on January 10, 2006 and cancelled on March 11, 2014 because the corresponding international registration was cancelled. The goods listed in the record are extensive and include precious‑metal items, paper goods, various household and office items, clothing, toys, and staple foods, all under classes 014, 016, 020, 021, 025, 028, and 030. A new user of the name would face the closest concern in any of those categories, especially where the goods are similar to the listed items. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a refusal for descriptiveness followed by a cancellation, but no movement to the Supplemental Register. The last significant event was the cancellation on March 11, 2014, and no enforcement actions are recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk but does not eliminate potential concerns in the same goods categories.
