What this record means
The record shows that the mark “POSEY BY TWO WIVES” is dead and was abandoned by TWO WIVES DESIGN LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company, because the owner never filed a Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 025, covering bibs not of paper. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, specifically for bibs or related baby clothing items. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers that specific product category. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved for publication, published for opposition, and then allowed, but the owner failed to complete the use requirement. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means there is no active registration, but the earlier allowance and class 025 goods still suggest a potential concern if the new use is in the same or a closely related category.
