This is an interesting subject. I'd be interested to hear what others say.
As I understand it, unless you register your name (which costs money and might not even be approved), there is nothing you can do other than ask others to to change their names?
I would not think too much about it and market yourself differently to others. Customers should be interested in you, not your company name.

How would it affect your business in practical terms? Probably not at all. Forget about it and focus on YOUR business!

Disco Magic Windsor claims he been operating for 10+ years which begs the question, who's nicked who's name? The good news is, nobody has registered the name Disco Magic, so for around £500 you could register it yourself, but wether or not you could retrospectivly prevent others from continuing to use it is debatable, and if you could, can you afford the legal fees x 7?

How so? I am no legal buff, and would be interested to know how copyright is broken. I have not registered the name???

Would not be able to afford £500 + the legal fees to start with. Yes he states he has been operationg for 10 years, but if so why did he not register a website until 2010??? It is one of the first things I did!!!

Not sure how you can say someone has upset you because they have "nicked your ideas and imagination". because it could be totally innocent?
I haven't looked at the links you posted.
I'm sure a lot of people have ideas and imagination too and maybe the two of you are just on the same wavelength?

There are lots of business areas where many companies share the same name.
Hairdressers, chip shops, builders, etc, often there are dozens in the country with the same name, it shouldn't be an issue.

I wouldn't read too much into that. I've been at it for 18 years, but have had a website for probably less than a year.
