I also have some LLLL.co.uk names.

anes.co.uk
quat.co.uk

Some longer .co.uk

boxingfights.co.uk
nevertheless.co.uk

Any of these worth anything?

Welcome to NP

I think "Boxing Match" is a more popular term, cant see much commercial use for "nevertheless"

Stay very far away from Olympic names, that is a trademark and they are very aggressive in protecting their brand

Unless you can find acronyms for "anes" and "quat", I cant see much value in them

Personally, I would drop these

Have a question about trademarks. Maybe this should go in the legal, but can you get in trouble just for selling a domain with a term like Olympic in it or is it only if you develop it yourself. I've got a couple of trademarked terms that get a ton of searches - e.g. ushonda.com

Yes you can, and its happened if you look in the legal section

If you sell a name that has "Olympic" in it, you are benefitting financially off someones trademark

Just google stuff like olympics IOC UDRP trademark

Honda is a huge TM as well., drop that too, its just not worth the risk

The Olympics hold on that name is like a trademark on steroids. I believe that, at least in the USA, in addition to a normal trademark, there is additional Congressional legislation that further protects the name for the International Olympic Committee against almost any commercial use.

TM's NO BIGGY...They will only take your first born child. The IOC is as protected of their TM's as new mother is...Stay far away...including Honda.
