Remember when Coco Pommel got her name changed because of a legal issue? Well I think her name could still be "Coco" and "Pommel", but separately. Just not together. I don't think the legal issue would apply if her name is pronounced separately. So in the show might be just called either "Miss Pommel", or just "Coco". Then I think Hasbro would be safe, right? The "Miss Pommel" thing obviously worked, but I mean, if she was also called just "Coco".

No, because I'm sure the issue was due to Chanel and their trademark of Coco (I think).

 

So saying the word "Coco" is illegal in media now? Like "hot coco", or the antagonist in Rugrats in Paris? Her name was "Coco" too! :P

I'd say when used in conjunction with a fashion designer. It has a line that could be construed. I'm sure it's Hasbro being more cautious than anything else.

I found it generally weird that this change had to happen, when I first heard about it, but seeing how I am not fully sure we are going to see Coco Pommel in the show again anytime soon, I don't think this will have to be addressed again.
