What this record means
The record shows that “THE NAME THAT MAKES THE GAME” is an abandoned application, filed by James William Carpenter Jr. as an intent‑to‑use filing on Jan 16 2011, and the USPTO issued a Notice of Allowance on Jul 26 2011 but the applicant never filed a Statement of Use, resulting in an abandonment notice on Feb 27 2012. The only goods listed are in International Class 025 and cover a broad range of athletic apparel and related clothing items such as shirts, pants, jackets, footwear, hats, swimsuits and other sports‑related garments. A similar name used for clothing or athletic wear would therefore raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the wording, only over the specific apparel goods described. No enforcement actions, oppositions or cancellations appear in the history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand athletic clothing with a comparable phrase.
