I’d like to post my two cents, I guess there’s no infringement here. Trademarks are infringed only when they have been duly registered. Or when that name aside from being registered has been a ‘household name’ for that particular goods or services.

If the name is not highly intertwined nor distinctive of that product or service, and belongs to a an entirely different category, no law was violated. You must consider as well, the location, intention and resulting injury to said product or service.

I hope that helps!

What is illegal under the Philippine Law is registering a mark that is:

Is identical with a registered mark belonging to a different proprietor or a mark with an earlier filing or priority date, in respect of:

(i) The same goods or services, or

(ii) Closely related goods or services, or

(iii) If it nearly resembles such a mark as to be likely to deceive or cause confusion.

Hindi naman confusing yung ginawang blog post ni Jane ah, Tao yung sa kanya, yung isa restaurant- a thing.. Puto King as a person is different sa Puto King na restaurant. Besides Jane has no intention of registering say a “Puto King Restaurant” or kahit anong “Puto King” business na still related sa Puto food. Kaya, I don’t think there’s any problem with that..

That’s just my opinion but I could be wrong..:)
