And if your name is Bob, I'm sure when you meet another guy named Bob, you don't start getting up in his face and demanding to know what he's all about. And if this Bob guy does something stupid, you don't particularly worry how it reflects on you, or on "Bobdom" as a whole. And Bob probably doesn't go around telling all the other Bobs that he's the only REAL Bob because he was there first and has more chapters.

If it is legal then what's the point of a trademark?
Let's say someone wants to start a fraternity and they like the letters TKE. Is their anything to prevent them from using the name TKE Society or TKE Order?
