This is probably a bit of an odd question, but how do names of saints work regarding copyright/trademark? Example: I wanted to use the name of a saint as part of the name of a fictional organization. St. Patrick's Vigilantes, something like that. There are parishes and churches as well as hospitals that use the name. Do they have rights to it or am I free to use it? The name of the organization would likely end up as the title of the work. Uziel fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Mar 12, 2009 |

Beat. posted:You can use it. Just to elaborate a bit, if they had some kind of image associated with their name and trademarked that, you shouldn't use that. But just a generic saint's name? No issue.
