Now, two Italian fashion entrepreneurs say they're going to release clothing -- and perhaps even electronics -- under the "Steve Jobs" brand name. As TechZuma reports, Vincenzo and Giacomo Barbato noticed that the Apple co-founder's name hadn't been trademarked in Europe.

So, in 2012, they began the painstaking process of getting it.

"We did our market research and we noticed that Apple, one of the best known companies in the world, never thought about registering its founder's brand, so we decided to do it," the brothers told La Repubblica.

The Italian brother then registered the brand and associated logo. The logo of the men makes a nod to the Apple logo. It is a J with the tip of the I in the form of an apple stalk. Like the Apple logo, the J of the Barbato brothers also has a snack from the side. Although the judge believes that you can not take a bite out of a J.
