I just registered a business name, let's call the business "my company".
I have registered the business name using CORE, I've applied for a trademark and I own "mycompany.ie". I have a logo and some branding work done.
I searched beforehand for similar names using the Trademark and CRO sites Search features.
However I must have searched wrong cause I just discovered there's a company called "mycompany ltd" on SoloCheck.
They only show on SoloCheck, not any form of Google search. They were set up in 2022, they have a certificate of incorporation and an A1 form listed only. They are marked as status "Normal". I doubt they are actually trading?
I like this name, I've already applied for the trademark for the generic "my company" term. I intend to trade under the name "mycompany.ie".
What are my options here? Owner is listed as a director of another company with an address in Blackrock. Deep pockets for an IP claim in the future?
Am I OK or should I pick another name? Can I use another company name and simply trade as "mycompany.ie"?
I've yet to come across a State website with a usable search feature.
