So I Invented a "Word"

so my buddies and I compete on tournaments, and we have a name for our team, its a unique name and recently we have been seeing other people using it, we went to a tournament on saturday and some other guy was using it for his team name, is there anything i can do to stop others from using it, legally? copyright? patent? trademark? anything?
 
No you can't copyright it, probably can't trademark it, can't patent it.

What is the word?

(trademarking it would cost you thousands of dollars, if you could even do it)
 
What kind of tournament?

Not really unique, then.
 
halo tournaments

*me puts on flame suits

but we are really good, so why not make some money and win prizes with the talent we have
 
Stop using said word, hope everyone who heard word stops using it. Then don't tell anyone else the word except your friends.
 
No offense Seige but sadly your thread is of the interesting variety compared to most of the rest of the sh!t that has been posted today.

Your post is a cliffhanger!! 😀 what's the word!?!?

ATOT is fun again! yay!
 
acting like this word is so fantastic that the mere whisper of it would shatter my ear drums and cause my brain to explode.

No, you can't copyright your Halo 2 team name...

Wouldn't that be a trademark?

So to stop people from using 'word', OP should create fantastic product and name it 'word'

for one, that is 2 words, im telling you the type of tournaments, the word is the name of our clan/team, which we use to compete with
