Can I register a trademark based on my last name
Cannot obtain registration. According to my country's trademark registration review standards, if a trademark uses only a common surname and is composed of ordinary fonts, and is designated for use in daily necessities or daily services, the surname should not be monopolized by one family. It will be regarded as lacking distinctive features and cannot be used. It has the function of identifying trademarks.
However, if the surname trademark is expressed in a special form of font, or is designated for use in non-daily necessities and non-daily services, it is not subject to This limit.
