Jay Z And Beyonce Trademark Their Daughter's Name
Try opening your dream laundromat or hair salon and calling it Blue Ivy just to see how far you'll get...try it!! You won't get too far, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has already denied two applications for doing this very thing citing that the name belonged to a “very famous infant ” says the Washington Post. The two people were trying to trademark Blue Ivy for their own personal use.
Designer Joseph Mbeh filed days after Baby Blue was born tried to trademark "Blue Ivy Carter NYC" and another unidentified person submitted an application for "Blue Ivy Carter Glory IV" which would be the name of a fragrance...how lame.
Jay Z and Beyonce filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect the name for simple asses like this. Can you imagine someone stealing your regular ass kid's name for their liking to sell something? Jawayne Red Dixon's Jumbo Curlers...oh I'd be pissed. I pray that wasn't Mathew Knowles trying to get the frangrance line going.
