: How does one copyright or patent a name? : Is one way better than another? : How much does it cost? Dear Rocky Hutchinson, A name cannot be copyrighted in itself. If the name is used to identify goods or service, it can be registered as a trademark or a service mark. The Official Government Filing Fee is $325. If you are going to spend bucks like that you ought to know how to do it right. We have a Reality Check® to help you save time, money and worry. Trademarks can be good forever. In my medicine cabinet there is a Cologne Jean Marie Farina, that mark is 200 years old. M.
