Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, stated in documents acquired by Page Six that "Reasonably Shady" would "create confusion in the minds of customers" because people have known him as Slim Shady and Shady since the late 1990s. Since 1998, he has only performed under these two stage names, and he owns the trademark for "Shady" to be used on his items.“The Real Housewives of Potomac” regulars Gizelle, 52, and 43-year-old Robyn – whose podcast has tackled romance, parenthood, fashion and news – had filed to trademark their podcast’s name with the intention of also selling merch from water bottles and lip gloss to clothes and socks.
