Ever wondered if you can put your own name under the trademark spotlight? Well, we've got the answer for you right here. In a nutshell, yes, you can absolutely trademark your own name. But let's peel back the layers a bit and explore how to make it happen.

To successfully trademark your personal name, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. First and foremost, you have to use your name as a brand. In other words, your name should be closely associated with your business or the products/services you offer. Your company must essentially be an extension of you.

Now, having a unique name can be a big plus when it comes to trademarking. If your name is one-of-a-kind, it's easier to distinguish your brand from others. However, having a common name doesn't mean you can't trademark it; it might just require a bit more effort to establish its uniqueness.

Once you're ready, you can file for a trademark under your own name. The process involves some paperwork, and you'll need to demonstrate that your name is indeed used as a brand in commerce. But don't worry; it's a doable task.

In the end, whether you have a common name or a unique one, the key is to make your name a standout brand in your field. So, if you're thinking about trademarking your own name, go for it! It's absolutely possible to get it accepted.
