| | | Wizarding World of Harry Potter names patented & trademarked?
A couple months ago several Harry Potter-related names appeared on the US Patent and Trademark Office website, creating speculation that they may be used at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which is currently under construction at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and is scheduled to open sometime next year. Quote:
- Most notably, the name “Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey” is filed under “Entertainment services in the nature of an amusement park ride.” It may be safe to assume that this will be the name of the large new ride that is being constructed in the back of the park.
- Likewise, listed under the same category are “Flight of the Hippogriff” and “Dragon Challenge,” which are likely going to be the new names for the existing Flying Unicorn and Dueling Dragons rides.
- Four other trademark names are also listed. “Owl Post” and “Dervish and Banges” are categorized as retail stores. “Hogsmeade Village” is listed as “Entertainment services in the nature of an amusement park attraction, namely, a themed area.” “Magic Neep” is categorized under “Restaurant services, namely, providing of food and beverages for consumption.”
A logo was also trademarked, indicating that it may possibly be used within the park and/or on merchandise. That may be seen here;

I wonder if any of the actors will be at the opening? That would be cool. I'm so there. I should imagine so. Heck, I reckon they should premiere DH1 there too! PotC style! Quote:
does this mean that we will not be able to use these words without paying for the use.
No. What it means is that Universal have bought these names, so no other company can. Bloomsbury did the same for the books. It means they have lots of choice. Quote:
Er.. the logo is old. Really old. It was already on the Dutch Harry Potter-books.
I thought it looked familiar. Still, the fact Universal bought it, is news. Quote:
