What can you register as a Trademark ?

Wordmark / Name / Phrase
A trademark word is a word or phrase that is used to identify and distinguish a company’s products or services from those of others. It can be a single word, a combination of words, or even a phrase. Examples of trademark words include “Coca-Cola” for soft drinks, “Nike” for athletic footwear and apparel, and “Google” for internet-related services. Trademark registration for words is the most common form of trademark registration, as it is relatively simple and straightforward. The main purpose of registering a trademark word is to protect the brand and prevent others from using it without permission. Once a word is registered as a trademark, the owner has the legal right to prevent others from using it in a way that is likely to cause confusion among consumers.
