Intel Corporation created the Pentium chip. They had previously created all their microchips with numerical identification. Their main series up until that point included the 286 (technically called the 80286), 386, and 486. They were frustrated by the fact that their competitors were naming their chips the same way or very similarly. They tried to make the number-names into trademarks but discovered that one cannot trademark a number. Therefore, to keep the competition from using their naming scheme, they decided to call their next chip the 'Pentium', and they trademarked the name.
