The goal of a brand name is to provide an easy way to recognize and remember the name that evokes a positive response in consumers. For example, many shoppers prefer to buy "brand name" products as opposed to the generic kind because of their perceived value. Once the registration is complete and the trademark has been granted the company who is now owner of the trademark will be legally protected from other companies to use whatever is included in the trademark granted, i.e. they cannot use the registered brand name, the logo, the slogan or any other item included in the trademark.

No, one cannot trademark a common generic adjective and noun because trademarks must be distinctive and capable of identifying the source of goods or services. Generic terms are considered to be in the public domain, meaning they cannot be exclusively owned by any one entity. For example, terms like "computer" or "soft" cannot be trademarked, as they describe the general category of goods. However, a unique combination or a distinctive mark related to the adjective and noun may be eligible for trademark protection.
