No, in my case it’s not a existing license (or actually there are of course 
licenses for
the resulting product). But I use the name to make sure:

- „commercial“ keeps people from thinking it’s unrestricted (if
  they happen to get in contact with Pom or repo)
- companyname gives a namespace
- allows to be included in manifest

In the end this is mostly that SBOM and build-reports list all projects 
together.
(A vendor grouping would be better but I think normal maven reports don’t).

Not specifying a license has two problems, first it might inherit unwanted 
licenses
from parent, and secondly it makes it harder to find actual not yet documented
missing licenses.

Therefore I can only recommend to always use a common license even if those
Poms  and artifacts never are to be exposed to external participants.
