[Trademark] Appeal No. 2024-10532
Trademark at issue: "HIKKY" (standard characters)
Cited trademarks: "HIKKI," etc.
⇒ Not similar
The pronunciation is the same: ヒッキー.
They cannot be compared in concept, and there is no likelihood of confusion in appearance.
(Translation of the quoted decision)
"It cannot be said that distinctiveness based on pronunciation exceeds distinctiveness based on appearance and concept."
