>Someone mentioned Australia, if you want a specific famous case if you know Sydney there is Betty's Soup Kitchen on Oxford St at the corner of Crown St.. She had a campbell's-like lettered logo in red and white painted next to the name Betty's Soup Kitchen. She lost. Yes, they argued endlessly that it was an ironic reference to popular culture Warhol whatever. She still lost plainly after wasting the time and money on that.
Speaking of Australia, don't forget the Targets case in Tasmania. Where the chain clothing store Target opened up a shop then sued (unsuccessfully, ultimately) the pre-existing clothing store run by Mrs Targett for having a similar name to theirs. There are also some exeptions (in Australia, I wouldn't want to assume it applies elsewhere in the world) where you are using your name. So if my name is Ronald McDonald I can legally use the shop-name Ronald McDonald's Hamburgers. The auctions are just begging for some juicy e- gold bids!
