The applications to trademark the names of Sarah Palin and Bristol Palin have been rejected by the federal government because the former Alaska governor forgot to sign the forms, according to news reports.
Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin is trying to trademark her name. CAPTIONBy Brandi Simons, APThe 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee and her daughter, who was a finalist on Dancing with the Stars, have indicated they will resubmit the forms -- this time with signatures.
Fox Business News reports this from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office:
"Registration is refused because the applied-for mark, SARAH PALIN, consists of a name identifying a particular living individual whose consent to register the mark is not of record."
AOL's Politics Daily first reported last week that Palin, who is thinking of running for president, and her daughter filed applications to protect their names -- and their brands.
Palin has reportedly earned millions for writing two best-selling books. Bristol Palin, 20, was a finalist last year on ABC's popular dance competition program.
