Los Angeles:
Singer Taylor Swift has reportedly filed trademark applications for five phrases including "Swiftmas," "Blank Space," "And I'll Write Your Name," "A Girl Named Girl" and "1989", reported Aceshowbiz.
While 1989 is the title of 25-year-old singer's latest album, A Girl Named Girl is the title of a novel the singer wrote when she was 14 which remains unpublished. (Also Read - Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar: Two Americas and One Big Grammy)
The patent will debar people from using the phrases in performances, on clothing, merchandise, stationery and in books and publications freely.
For 1989, the trademark will apply only to the year presented in "stylized form", which looks like the one on Taylor's album cover.
In February, the Bad Blood hitmaker sought patents for phrases including "This Sick Beat," "Nice to Meet You, Where You Been?" and "Party Like It's 1989."
