Hi Jian,

We had the same problem with wayang (formerly rheem). You need to check the 
trademarks in section 9 of:
US, EU, India, CN

as well as github, bitbucked, web

We developed a gsheet with our champion to find a name which is able to 
trademark, and has some relation to our project. Please note, when your project 
graduate to an TLP, all this ™ issues come along. And later it’s a real large 
task with INFRA to rebrand / rename everything. So typically we love to see 
those issues solved in the incubation process. 

Stay safe,
—alex
