So a few days ago I received an email telling me that my blog name A Novel Place is the same name as a trademarked book store, and that I have to change my name. I had no idea my name was in use but after further Googling, I did find the company. To them, I say I’m sorry and that I didn’t mean to infringe on their rights. To all of you, I’m telling you that I’m changing my name (tear) to Books, Tea & Me. I actually really like this name, so I’m content. And I’ll have a cute picture logo to go along with my new name soon. So don’t feel confused if you see Books, Tea & Me – it’s still me!
I’m sorry that you were forced to change your name, but I’m glad you were able to keep the lovely theme!
Wow, that’s crazy that they actually contacted you about that. How can a book store be threatened by a book blog?!? Seriously! That’s too bad though, I know I’d hate to have to change my blog name. What a pain!
I like the new name :)
Thanks everyone! I know, I’m surprised that they made a big deal out of it, but oh well. My new name is growing on me =)
Quite odd, but hey, your new name is lovely!
