I think one of the classic firsts I heard of was the big mac name here in Australia. As far as I understand, a bloke decided after hearing mcdonalds was coming to australia, to patent the name Big MAC. Mcdonalds pay him a small amount per burger as a result (maybe .1 cents per burger sold or something)but he is rather wealthy as a result. No taking him to court or shit. I though it was rather smart of him.
