“Native American Sasha Houston Brown”
WTF kind on a native American name is that? Sounds like a welfare queen from the Bronx.

I would feel ridiculous wearing anything with a dsigner name on it as I would anything with the name “Navajo” on it.

I wonder just how long this miserable outfit would be allowed to sell Ubangi merchandise.
I certainly hope the Navajo win this one. The tribes have been humiliated enough. It is time to stop it. All because of far too lenient immigration laws five hundred years ago

“WTF kind on a native American name is that?”
A very good American Indian name. It may not meet with your approval, but let me assure you it is a very fine American Indian name.

As with Rolex and Champagne, I’ll agree with the Navajo on this one.

FYI
Your picture is of a man named ‘Iron eyes Cody’. Real name was Coti. A son of Sicilian immigrants. Just one of many that have claimed to be Indian. Kinda like Ward Churchill

I guess the question is whether the Navajos can trademark the word Navajo. Can France trademark the word French?

I don’t blame the Navajo for playing hardball if some bloomin’ foreign overseas factories are, in effect, counterfeiting their merchandise.

I'm with the Navajo on this one. This isn't something like "Redman sneakers" or anything like that. It's the legal name of the tribe being used. These clowns are making money off the tribe, and it's not even authentic stuff.

The article was a bit confusing. It sounded like the Navajo Nation produces a line of similar items. If that is the case, then I would think it should be a trademark violation.
If they are just mad that someone is stamping “Navajo” on some undies with an Indian-style pattern - I’m not so sure. Should I be mad and sue because of that company called “American Eagle”?

Illegal panties eh? Many of us have always thought that should be the case.

WTF kind on a native American name is that? About as much of a Native American name as Chief Ben Shelly, Thomas Cole, Jacobus Thorpe, John Chavis, Carlos Norris, Kelvin Sampson etc.
A lot of them have English, Irish, or Scottish last names either due to mixed blood or Anglicized names.
