In what must be both the dumbest and most audacious attempt at 'owning' a word, Greek City Times can reveal that Meghan Markle has filed to trademark the Greek word "Archetypes".
We can reveal that the application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office was filed on 26 March 2022 in the following Classes: US 021 023 026 036 038, 041, 100 101 107 with the following description of the areas of concern.
