Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A trade name can be registered as a trademark if it meets the requirements for trademark registration, such as being used to identify and distinguish goods or services in commerce. However, the same name cannot be registered separately as both a trade name and a trademark, as this would create confusion and conflict between the two registrations.
