Can I copyright a name, title, or slogan?

Yes, you can copyright a name, title, or slogan in North Dakota. The United States Copyright Office defines copyright law as “a form of protection provided by the laws of the United States to authors of “original works of authorship”. This includes literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works.” This means that you can copyright any original work that you create, including names, titles, and slogans. In order to copyright a name, title, or slogan, you must file an application with the US Copyright Office. The application must include a detailed description of the work, including the words or symbols that comprise the name, title, or slogan, and a copy of the work itself. It is also important to note that your application must include a filing fee, which may vary depending on the type of work being copyrighted. Once your application is processed, you will receive a formal copyright certificate from the US Copyright Office. This certificate will give you the legal right to enforce your copyright against anyone who uses your work without permission. It is important to remember that the above information applies only to copyright law in the United States and North Dakota in particular. If you plan to copyright your name, title, or slogan in a different country, you must research the laws of that country before filing an application.
