if it is hopeless to pursue.

Got two today. One for the Name Papi, and One for the Name Paige.

My product is NOT, but pretend it is a Keychain, or a Nametag that has these names on them. Personal Names in a generic font.

The violations let me edit, but I can not edit the name, or the product is… well not the product.

So I would need to open a case.

ANY CHANCE IN AMAZON H**L it can be fixed or lost cause from the get-go?

Is it suspecting against a brand name? I would open a case and I think your on the NSFE? If so, make some noise and hope a mod takes the case, cause that is a stupid bot gone wild

I looked up Paige and Papi on google. Plenty of businesses with these names.

As I am sure every name has a business somewhere.
and I am sure the USPTO the same, multiples of both.

So on the face of it - I lose, because I read somewhere that Amazon does not take into consideration the Trademarked class. Meaning if the TM was for Clothing, they need another for food, etc.

Something - Triggers this. Guess the large brands with money, send a letter to Amazon legal, and if they are big enough they get a BOT?

If you are on the NSFE and do what @Pepper_Thine_Angus suggests, PLEASE put a case # into the post there. Without one, even if a MOD sees the post, they will need a # to see what is going on.

Thanks, I will but…

Has anyone ever heard of success story on this?

No, because the bot that detected the “violation” will never be re-programmed. The only way to get rid of them is to either remove the words or delete the listing.

I have had similar issues, I was not able to get them resolved. I ended up removing the items. Fortunately, they were low selling items to begin with.

Many years ago, I (and many others, I have discovered over the years) had to pull a product with “smiley” in the title. There was no route for me with Amazon, that didn’t involve off-Amazon litigation and/or the lengthy trademark process (like what Tavis Smiley had to do with his actual name, against the smiley registrations). I simply renamed the product, changed UPC, and changed packaging…and then understood that Amazon wouldn’t be my partner in differentiating uses without my own separate registered trademark.

But your products are also actual names, and sadly working against things like this, both from February 2025:

Amazon would rather over-flag potential infringement and be done with it.
