Check Spelling In Legal Nebraska Copyright Forms For Free

There is no legal requirement that the author be identified by his or her real name on the application form. For further information, see FL 101, Pseudonyms. If filing under a fictitious name, check the ?Pseudonymous? box when giving information about the authors.

Pseudonyms can be used both by individuals and for entities that are created, rather than born; these are commonly referred to as pen names and fictitious names. Using a pseudonym for yourself or your business can have different implications based on what you are doing and how you are using such a name.

Copyright does not protect names, titles, slogans, or short phrases. In some cases, these things may be protected as trademarks. Contact the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office, TrademarkAssistanceCenter@uspto.gov or see Circular 33, for further information.
