UDRP shopify.ai

[Igor Gabrielan]

Today the company Shopify started a dispute with me regarding the name shopify.ai .
I have many excellent arguments, which I will describe later.

 

[Igor Gabrielan]

Shopify was founded in 2006 by Tobias Lütke and Scott Lake

shopify.ca registered February 20, 2006

Apparently, from this moment it is necessary to count registrations and acquisitions of domain names by the company Shopify.

The company representative writes: <“Shopify” is an invented word>
However, this word "shopify" follows the rules of English word formation and consists of a very widely used root "shop" and suffix "-ics".

For example, these words:

What’s your point Igor?

& welcome btw

The representative of the company greatly underestimates the imagination of domainers.
I am sure that the domainers 'invented' this word before the company Shopify.

589 .ai registered domain names ending with -ify.
In particular,

addressify.ai
agrify.ai
assistify.ai
augmentify.ai
authentify.ai
avatarify.ai
bankify.ai
blogify.ai
bookify.ai
botify.ai
clothify.ai
cloudify.ai
coinify.ai
dataify.ai
estatify.ai
flexify.ai
goodify.ai
humanify.ai
indexify.ai
jobify.ai
lawify.ai
marketify.ai
newsify.ai
oakify.ai
patentify.ai
questify.ai
robotify.ai
snapify.ai
techify.ai
unspotify.ai
visionverify.ai
webify.ai

As you can see, these names are formed according to the same method as "shopify", that is, they consist of a very common root and suffix "-ics". The full analog is especially indicative - registered name "storify.ai".

Even if that was the case, Shopify is TM'd and that's all that matters.

Can you find the word shopify in a dictionary anywhere? It's not listed at the morewords link you supplied. It's not at dictionary.com or Merriam Webster.

Is Facebook in Webster dictionary?

 

[Igor Gabrielan]

The company bought these names, but did not win them back in disputes

 

[draco]

Is Facebook in Webster dictionary?

No. That's my point. It's not a dictionary word. It's invented, as Shopify states.

Da Igor …Brands are able to file for takebacks

 

[Igor Gabrielan]

No. That's my point. It's not a dictionary word. It's invented, as Shopify states.

But perhaps not invented by them.

You can have Shopify as long as it servers another purpose Igor

Click "Show All Extensions".
In almost all zones, this name is taken.
Looks like many names are taken by domainers.

I have already won a similar dispute.
