What this record means
The record shows that “THE PAPER DRAGONFLY” is a dead application on the Principal Register, abandoned because the owner, Emmanuelle Cook, did not file a Statement of Use or Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance on February 25, 2025. The mark covers paper goods and printed matter, specifically blank writing journals, office stationery, paper stationery, printed stationery, stationery, writing ink, writing instruments, writing pads, and writing utensils. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same category of paper and stationery products. This history does not give the owner control over every use of the words “paper” or “dragonfly” in unrelated contexts. The prosecution history shows a standard examination, publication for opposition, and allowance, followed by abandonment. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark no longer protects that specific wording in these goods, but the record still signals a prior claim in the same product area.
