DAN DAN AND DELLA DUCKLE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “DAN DAN AND DELLA DUCKLE” is dead; it was abandoned because the owner, Dancing Ducks Entertainment, LLC, did not file a Statement of Use or Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was on the Principal Register and covered children’s toys such as plush dolls, action figures, puppets, and related accessories. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the toy and children’s play goods area, especially for plush or puppet products. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. The prosecution history ends with an abandonment notice on December 17, 2012, and no later maintenance events appear. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions are recorded, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you’re thinking of a similar name, be aware that the abandoned mark still signals a prior claim in the toy category, and you should consider whether your use might be confused with that earlier claim.
