Trying to decide on a name for our cooking team. We want something cool...something catchy...and something original.

How do I choose a name and be certain that someone isn't already using it?

What if I choose a name, have business cards, t-shirts printed, and someone has laid claim to it?

You are welcome to my idea of "Manager's Special" that no one has taken yet... Logo would be a rubber stamp font of the name on a label with rotten meat.

PS - My former team name of "Bad Bones BBQ Crew" is still available for sale... I can throw in a personalized BBQ Brethren team banner too.

Do a Trade Mark search

And if it is a name that you really want to keep, Spend the money to mark it!
