Is the name Patchou copyrighted?

If so, where can i see that, if not are users to allowed to have a URL like Patchou.cc or Patchou.be or whatever.

I hope i will hear soon,
Greetings

Remko.

I don't think Patchou is copyrighted.  But I'd assume that if you did purchase a domain with his Web Alias, and used it for Slanderous purpose you'd be contacted by Patchous solicitors. 

Why would you want a Patchou domain name anyways?

Patchou is copyrighted.

Since it's his creation, Patchou "automatically owns" the copyrights to the name "Patchou"; so you can't copy it (use it to your benefit) without express authorization.

(That's theoretical, however. If you register a trademark in your country named Patchou it's very likely that, until you are sued by Patchou and he demonstrates that he's been using that name for long with these and those purposes, you'll be able to use the name without any significant problem -- that doesn't make it right, of course).

ROFL, I thought that was him name what is his real name??

Anyways, is "our" Patchou really the one and only Patchou? I seem to remember some other people using the same nickname... of course now a Google search for it is useless because of the popularity of MsgPlus...

Actually, not completely useless:

But you won't get anything very interesting, except for a perfume and a dodgy St. Patrick's day page.

Yeah, yeah, I know they can still go look up that site from that, but technically, I never posted porn

And a link to "Patchou's IRC Log Viewer"

"Patchou" is trademarked in the United States and registered as a company name in Canada, so no, you can't use it anymore without paying me a billion dollars! mouhahahaha.

lol no offence Patchou but the name 'Patchou' suits you better than Cyril.
