:dahell: how would him owning the trademark help him here? Plenty of people names prince in the world. But in any event, I know of people ho have sold social media names before, it happens

Do you even know what the purpose of a trademark is?

You obviously don't. Being named "Prince" doesn't give you right to the trademark

I'm currently going through that patent process. I have pretty good grasp on intellectual property. Being a famous musician with a name doesn't automatically give you rights to social media accounts with that name. Especially something is commonplace as "Prince"

You're correct, being a famous musician with a name doesn't automatically give you rights to social media accounts with that name


But having a registered trademark can . . .

Prince really seems to have lightened up over the years. Back in the 80s I honestly don't see him being able to laugh at himself like he has the past decade or so.
If Prince started his career today the way he started his career in 1978 he'd of been dropped and his album would've never come out
