RE: Serial No: 77405273


Mark: MOMMIE DO DOCTOR
Applicant: AUI Management
Office Action Of: September 29, 2008

APPLICANT'S REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION

The following is the response of the Applicant, AUI Management, by Counsel, to the
Final Office Action sent viaa email on September 29, 2008, by Examining Attorney Ahsen Khan.
Khan

LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION REFUSAL


The Examining Attorney has refused registration of the proposed mark pursuant to
Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d), on the grounds that the mark is likely to be
confused with the mark in Registration
gistration No. 3470348
3470348.. For the following reasons, the Applicant
respectfully disagrees with the findings and requests that the Examining Attorney reconsider the
statutory refusal and allow registration of the Applicant’s mark.
Likelihood of confusion between two marks at the PTO is determined by a review of all
of the relevant factors under the DuPont test. In re E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2d
1357, 177 USPQ 563 (CCPA1973). The two key considerations in ex parte likelihood of
confusion
ion analysis are the similarity of the marks and the similarity of the goods. See Federated
Foods, Inc. v. Fort Howard Paper Co., 544 F.2d 1098, 192 USPQ 24 (CCPA 1976). Here the
marks are different enough, given the dilution of the material common between them, that it is
unlikely prospective purchasers would confuse the source of the respective services. Table 1
shows the respective marks and services:

Law Office 115

Table 1: Marks and Services


Applicant Registrant
Mark

Relevant Goods or Services Osteopathic, obstetric, and Providing a website featuring


gynecologic services information in the field of
child health and nutrition

Differences in the Marks


Under DuPont, the marks are compared for similarity or dissimilarity in their entireties as
to appearance, sound, connotation and commercial impression. In re E. I. du Pont de Nemours &
Co., 476 F.2d 1357, 1361, 177 USPQ 563, 567 (C.C.P.A. 1973). Marks containing common
elements are not likely to be confused if: “(1) the marks in their entireties convey significantly
different commercial impressions, or (2) the matter common to the marks is not likely to be
perceived by purchasers as distinguishing source because it is merely descriptive or diluted.”
See, e.g., In re Farm Fresh Catfish Co., 231 USPQ 495 (TTAB 1986) (CATFISH BOBBERS
(with "CATFISH" disclaimed) for fish held not likely to be confused with BOBBER for
restaurant services); In re Shawnee Milling Co., 225 USPQ 747 (TTAB 1985) (GOLDEN
CRUST for flour held not likely to be confused with ADOLPH'S GOLD'N CRUST and design
(with "GOLD'N CRUST" disclaimed) for coating and seasoning for food items). Here, the
material common between the marks is the derivation of “MOM,” as “MOMMIE” or
“MOMMY,” and the derivation of “DOCTOR” as “DOCTOR” or “DOC.” In the field of health
care related services in Class 44, both MOM, in its multiple derivations, and DOCTOR, in its
multiple derivations, are highly diluted and therefore extremely weak source identifiers.
Additionally, the terms are descriptive of the services, and are therefore weak.
The existence of a term in several third party registrations indicates the weakness of the
term. AMF Inc. v. American League Products, Inc. 474 F.2d 1403, 1406, 177 USPQ 268, 269-7-
(CCPA 1973). Here, MOM, MOMMY, or MOMMIE appear in at least twenty-seven (27) third
party registrations for similar services in Class 44. See Exhibits 1 and 2. Similarly, DOCTOR or
page 3 Request For Reconsideration SN 77405273
Ex. Atty.: Ahsen Khan
Law Office 115

its derivatives DOC and DR. appear in at least eighty four (84) third-party registrations for
similar services in Class 44. See Exhibits 3 and 4. Clearly both MOM- and DOC- are highly
diluted as applied to the relevant services.
The Examining Attorney argues that Registrant’s mark is a relatively strong mark
because it is the only mark in Class 44 combining the terms MOMMIE and DOC. However, the
combination of the terms MOMMIE and DOC does not create a unitary or composite phrase in
which the terms lose their individual descriptive character, and in fact, the composite mark
MOMMIEDOC is itself descriptive. Registrant’s information is health information and it is of
interest to mothers. See Exhibit 5. The composite MOMMIEDOC merely describes the function
of Registrant’s services and a characteristic of the consumers of Registrant’s services. Because
the composite does not change the descriptive nature of its component words, the composite
itself remains descriptive and is granted only a limited scope of protection.
The individual terms that make up the registered mark are highly diluted and descriptive
as applied to Registrant’s services. Furthermore, the composite of the two words that forms
Registrant’s mark retains its descriptive character as applied to Registrant’s services. Customers
are used to seeing these descriptive words applied to services like Applicant’s and Registrants,
and would therefore be more aware of seemingly small differences in the marks that distinguish
the source of the respective services.

Differences in the services and the meaning of the marks


In addition, the services are different. Registrant’s services are, in pertinent part,
“Providing a website featuring information in the field of child health and nutrition.” Applicant,
in this submission, has amended its services to “health care services, namely, osteopathic,
obstetric, and gynecological services.” Registrant limits its services in two critical ways. First,
registrant’s services are limited to the provision of a website. Registrant does not offer health
care services, but rather, provides a website with information. Second, Registrant limits its
services to the fields of child health and nutrition. By contrast, Applicant’s services, as amended,
are limited to the specific fields of osteopathy, a form of non-traditional medicine, obstetrics, a
medical specialty dealing with care of pregnant women prior to childbirth, and gynecology, a
medical specialty dealing with care of the female reproductive system. Although both services
operate under the broad rubric of “health care,” they are by their nature very different services.
page 4 Request For Reconsideration SN 77405273
Ex. Atty.: Ahsen Khan
Law Office 115

Registrant’s offers informational services by which the parents of children can learn about the
health and nutrition of those children. Applicant offers clinical medical services that, by their
nature, are limited to adult females.
Finally, when applied to their respective services, the marks have very different
connotations. MOMMIEDOCS, as applied to Registrant’s services, connotes that the providers
of the website are mothers and doctors, and can bridge the gap between nervous parents and the
often inscrutable language of medicine. MOMMY DOCTORS, as applied to Applicant’s
services, connotes that Applicants are doctors that provide medical services to women who are
not yet mothers, but hope to become mothers.

Conclusion
Because of the highly diluted nature of the words that comprise both marks, the
descriptive character of the composites that are the marks, the differences in the services, and the
different connotations each mark carries when applied to the respective services, it is not likely
that consumers will be confused as to the source of Applicant’s and Registrant’s services when
consumers encounter them in association with the respective marks. Therefore Applicant
respectfully requests that the Examining Attorney reconsider the final refusal and allow
Applicant’s mark to proceed to publication.

The Applicant has responded to all issues raised in the Office Action. If any further
information or response is required, please contact Applicant's attorney. The attorney may be
reached by telephone at 703-525-8009.
