Or a product name that gets sold. I remember when my favorite Kendall
Oil got its name sold (and nobody told me) and the new
oil of course bears no semblance whatsoever to what it once was (and the original Kendall
Oil is now BradPenn). The same is true for people's name as well. But if the person's name was the one that was actually touching the product then it becomes kind of deceptive. Sort of like the
Leonardo da Vinci Painting Studio getting sold to Joe Schmoe. Who wants their portrait painted by Joe Schmoe?
