Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were not able to trademark ‘Archetypes’

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle gave up on their royal titles in 2020 and moved to the United States to start a new life. However, it looks like the royal couple’s plans are not going as well as they thought since it was recently revealed that they were not able to trademark the name of one of their current projects, ‘Archetypes.’

Earlier this week, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex submitted a request to trademark the name ‘Archetypes’, which is the name of the podcast that Meghan produced for Spotify when it was announced that their production company, Archwell Audio, and the streaming giant decided to part ways after just one season.

However, the United States Patent and Trademark Office denied their request as, according to the Daily Mail, they both failed to sign their own application to the regulatory body and there is already an existing trademark by Arizonian firm Archetypes LLC which gives them the rights to use the name ‘Archetypes.’

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s lawyers are currently looking for options to solve the situation so they requested a three-month extension to resubmit their petition to the U.S. government. It looks like the royal couple wants to protect their projects and avoid losing them like with Meghan’s blog, ‘The Tig.’
