A trademark is a legally binding emblem, logo, or name on goods or services that uniquely identify to a specific company. As the Chief Operations Officer of Boca Raton Sports Holdings, I decided to pick “Boca Raptors” as the new team name. The name “Boca” on the team name emanates from Boca Raton, the locality of the Basketball team and “Raptors” is derived from the fact that Florida is a Birds paradise with over 500 species in existence. However, we are not just any birds we are the raptors- birds of prey who feed on rival football teams. The raptors in Florida are beautiful, dominating and ruthless, which demonstrate exactly what the team is all about.
The results from the Trademark Electronic Search Systems (TESS) revealed no other team, company or individual uses the name and that gives us full rights over the team name. The evidence is shown below:

Glen Peters - 1999 - Business & Economics
In the Florida city of Boca Raton recently, lifeguard Beth Faragher claimed that she and several other women were regularly harassed by their male supervisors.
A breakdown of the eight-part test analysis is as follows.
Strength of the Priority Trademark
The Boca raptors trademark is less dilute because no company has used the name in Boca Raton. With the authentication protection, Boca Raton Sports Holdings enjoys a strong trademark.
Proximity of Goods and Services
In terms of proximity, the “Raptors” in the trademark name is a clear indication of the proximity of birds of prey in Florida. In this sense, the trademark passes this test
Similarity of the Mark
While there might exist slight similarities between our name and, “The Toronto Raptors” Their interpretation of the word “Raptors” might be entirely different from ours thereby staying clear of any rights infringement.
Priority Mark is Favored for Dissimilar Goods
Though we may be operating in different market with Toronto Raptors, the similarity in trademark names may cause legal suits. Therefore ironing out with issues of interpretation with the basketball club will prevent future legal claims.
Actual confusion
There is no confusion between the trademark name with any other close brand.
Intent to Benefit from Priority Mark
Our trademark “Boca Raptors” should bring benefits to the football club but in justification of our action, this is legal since we are using our brand name for our benefit.
Disparate Quality
The football club does not offer any poor goods to take advantage of any other brand name. In this regard, the trademark name is protected.
Sophistication of Consumers
No complexities exist in the trademark name that should confuse consumers. The trademark name is simple and clear and it represents Boca Raton Sports Holdings.
The song to be played in the stadium is Bad Blood by Taylor Swift. The BMI information of the song is as follows:
Before music is played publicly, composers and songwriters demand that a fee is paid as royalty top credit their hard work; this is in accordance with the United States Copyright Laws. Revenue earned through royalties enables artists, songwriters and composers to continue creating wonderful music for the public.
The four-part fair use test is a legal doctrine that enables music users to use music without having to acquire license for use. These include (1) the purpose of use either educational or for non-profit. (2) The nature of the music being used. (3) Substantiality if a portion of the work is used in part. (4) The value and effect of the copyrighted work (Cockburn).
