The word “Christmas” is more than just a name—it’s a symbol of joy, tradition, and celebration for people all over the world. But it’s also a big part of the holiday shopping season, with businesses using the term to sell everything from decorations to food to experiences. This raises an interesting question: Can the word “Christmas” be trademarked?
Imagine a consumer searching online for your brand name—but instead of seeing your website they’re greeted by ads from someone else. This is how brands become victims of trademark bidding. A registered trademark grants its owner an exclusive right to use the given keyword among search terms as well as product/service description, effectively discouraging any competitive tactics that seek to derive value from the good reputation of a given brand.
Influencers today are more than just content creators—they’re powerful brands that can shape trends and drive consumer behavior. But as your influence grows, so does the risk of others trying to profit from your reputation. Whether you’re an established influencer or on the path to becoming one, understanding and securing trademark rights is essential to safeguarding your brand and ensuring that your distinctive identity remains yours.
