BABOON AND BALLOON

What this record means

The record shows that “BABOON AND BALLOON” is a live, Principal Register registration owned by Baboon and Balloon, a Virginia limited‑liability company, and it has been active since its registration on December 14 2021. The registration covers only class 016 – “Paper Goods & Printed Matter” specifically listed as children’s books, with a first use date of September 4 2020 and a use‑in‑commerce date of October 12 2020, so a similar name used for books or other printed children’s material would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “baboon” or “balloon” outside that narrow scope. The latest meaningful event is the registration itself on December 14 2021; no further maintenance or renewal dates are provided. The prosecution history shows a standard examination, publication for opposition and eventual registration, and the supplied history contains no visible enforcement actions. I’d treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a children’s‑book brand with the same wording.
